I have the following HTML:
<table id="MwDataList" class="data" width="100%" cellspacing="10px">
....
<td class="centerText" style="height: 56px;">
<input id="selectRadioButton" type="radio" name="selectRadioGroup">
</td>
....
</table>
In other words I have a table with few rows, in each row in the last cell I have a radio button.
How can I get parent row for selected radio button?
What I have tried:
function getSelectedRowGuid() {
var row = $("#MwDataList > input:radio[@name=selectRadioGroup]:checked :parent tr");
var guid = GetRowGuid(row);
return guid;
}
But it seems like this selector is incorrect.
Try this.
You don't need to prefix attribute name by @
in jQuery selector. Use closest()
method to get the closest parent element matching the selector.
$("#MwDataList input[name=selectRadioGroup]:checked").closest('tr');
You can simplify your method like this
function getSelectedRowGuid() {
return GetRowGuid(
$("#MwDataList > input:radio[@name=selectRadioGroup]:checked :parent tr"));
}
closest()
- Gets the first element that matches the selector, beginning at the current element and progressing up through the DOM tree.
As a side note, the ids of the elements should be unique on the page so try to avoid having same ids for radio buttons which I can see in your markup. If you are not going to use the ids then just remove it from the markup.
