I have this table with some dependents information and there is a add and delete button for each row to add/delete additional dependents. When I click "add" button, a new row gets added to the table, but when I click the "delete" button, it deletes the header row first and then on subsequent clicking, it deletes the corresponding row.
Here is what I have:
Javascript code
function deleteRow(row){
var d = row.parentNode.parentNode.rowIndex;
document.getElementById('dsTable').deleteRow(d);
}
HTML code
<table id = 'dsTable' >
<tr>
<td> Relationship Type </td>
<td> Date of Birth </td>
<td> Gender </td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td> Spouse </td>
<td> 1980-22-03 </td>
<td> female </td>
<td> <input type="button" id ="addDep" value="Add" onclick = "add()" </td>
<td> <input type="button" id ="deleteDep" value="Delete" onclick = "deleteRow(this)" </td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td> Child </td>
<td> 2008-23-06 </td>
<td> female </td>
<td> <input type="button" id ="addDep" value="Add" onclick = "add()"</td>
<td> <input type="button" id ="deleteDep" value="Delete" onclick = "deleteRow(this)" </td>
</tr>
</table>
