Hi. I'm fairly
new to javaScript and jQuery, so hopefully this will be a quick fix. I need to display a table containing data that can be grouped into several categories, and I'd like to implement a slideToggle that hides/reveals all of the observations in each given category.
The code below should (ideally) display a table with 4 columns and 9
rows, with every group of 3
rows preceded by a green "Section i" row. I would like each Section header to work as a slideToggle that expands or collapses all of the
rows beneath it. Right now, nothing is collapsing. Any thoughts?
<head>
<style type="text/css">
td{padding:5px;}
</style>
<script type="text/javascript" src="js/jquery.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function(){
$(".flip").click(function(){
$(this).next(".section").slideToggle();
});
});
</script>
</head>
<body>
<p>
<table id="main_table">
<thead>
<tr class="firstline">
<th>Column1</th>
<th>Column2</th>
<th>Column3</th>
<th>Column4</th>
</tr>
</thead>
<tbody>
<tr style="background-color:green; color:white">
<td colspan="4" class="flip"> Section 1 </td>
</tr>
<div class="section">

</div>
