Jquery - check column checkboxes then do something with those rows

I've been trying to find a good match to my question, but nothing really concrete. I'm still learning and don't know exactly what I'm missing.
So my code can be found here: Fiddle
This is a simplified version of what I'm working with. In the final version, I will upload a csv file to the html table you see there (id="dvCSV"). Upon uploading, the table will look like it is shown (with added dropdowns and a column of checkboxes). The checkboxes come "pre-chcecked" when I generate them but what I want is the user to be able to turn "off" the rows that I do not want to calculate on.
I'll run you through the process:
This function reads the columns that the user designates. I don't know which column they will upload the data into.
function CheckLocations() {
//Checks the uploaded data for the locations of the Lat/Lon Data based on user dropdowns
colLocs[0] = ($('#Value_0 :selected').text());
colLocs[1] = ($('#Value_1 :selected').text());
colLocs[2] = ($('#Value_2 :selected').text());
colLocs[3] = ($('#Value_3 :selected').text());
LatColumn = colLocs.indexOf("Lat");
LongColumn = colLocs.indexOf("Long");
}
function AllTheSame(array) { //if they do not designate the checkboxes, I prompt them to
var first = array[0];
return array.every(function (element) {
return element === first;
});
}
This function takes all of the data in the designated columns and places them into an array for calculation.
function data2Array() {
//gets the lat and long data from the assigned columns and transfers them to an array for calculation
$("#dvCSV tr td:nth-child(" + (LatColumn + 1) + ")").each(function () {
var tdNode = $("<td/>");
tdNode.html(this.innerHTML);
LatData.push(tdNode.text());
});
LatData.splice(0, 2);
LatData.unshift(1, 1);
$("#dvCSV tr td:nth-child(" + (LongColumn + 1) + ")").each(function () {
var tdNode = $("<td/>");
tdNode.html(this.innerHTML);
LongData.push(tdNode.text());
});
LongData.splice(0, 2); //these two lines remove the first two items then replace them with 0
LongData.unshift(1, 1);
}
The first of these functions removes the checkbox column after calculations are done then new calculated columns are appended at the end. The second one was my attempt to read the checkboxes into an array. Ideally I'd want an array of values true or false, then do the calculations and return the calculated values back to the dvCSV table. For the td's where no calculation was performed, the cell would be empty.
function removeChecks() {
$("#dvCSV th:last-child, #dvCSV td:last-child").remove();
}
function makeCheckArray() {
var searchIDs = $("#dvCSV tbody td:last() input:checkbox:checked").map(function () {
return $(this).val();
}).get();
alert(searchIDs);
}
Hopefully I made the problem clear. Any help would be appreciated.

Pass a class when your table is generated into the tr element. Then create an on change method for your checkboxes. Read more here: http://api.jquery.com/on/
Also if you cannot get the inserted rows id's from your table then start a counter outside of your js like this
counter = 0;
Then inside of your loop add counter++
SO..
<tr class="row-1">
<td>
</td>
</tr>
Then add this snippet outside all of your other JS
$( "tr" ).on( "change", function() {
//do something
$(this+'.row-'+(counter)).hide();
});
This should get you headed in the right direction.

creating a 2 column table dynamically using jquery

I am trying to generate a table dynamically using ajax call. To simplify things i have just added my code to js fiddle here -> http://jsfiddle.net/5yLrE/81/
As you click on the button "HI" first two columns are created properly.. but some how as the td length reaches 2 . its not creating another row. The reason is that when i do find on the table elements its actually retrieving the children table elements. Can some one pls help.
I want a two column table.. Thank you.
sample code:
var tr = $("#maintable tbody tr:first");
if(!tr.length || tr.find("td:first").length >= max) {
$("#maintable").append("<tr>");
}
if(count==0) {
$("#maintable tr:last").append("<td>hi"+content+"</td>");
}

Basically the matching of descendants was allowing for great great grandchildren etc. Just needed to make the matching more specific.
JSFiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/TrueBlueAussie/5yLrE/91/
max = 2
$("button").click(function () {
var content = $('#template').html();
var $table = $("#maintable");
var tr = $table.find(">tbody>tr:last");
if (!tr.length || tr.find(">td").length >= max) {
// Append a blank row
tr = $("<tr>");
$table.append(tr);
}
tr.append("<td>hi " + content + "</td>");
});
This one always targets the last row and adds a row if it does not exists at all (or there are too many divs already) which is what I gather you intended.
I also used the templating I suggested to separate messy HTML strings from the code.

You will want to check the length of the table cells before incrementing a new table row. After you have reached your max column length, reset the row and start over.
JSFiddle
max_columns = 2;
count=0;
$("button").click(function() {
var content='column';
if(count==max_columns||!$('#maintable tr').length){
$("#maintable").append("<tr>");
count=0;
}
if(count!=max_columns)
$("#maintable tr:last").append("<td>"+content+"</td>");
else
$("#maintable tr:first").append("<td>"+content+"</td>");
count++;
});

Duck Punching / Monkey Patching breaks Tablesorter

I have a textbox that comma separated/delimited values are entered into which I have to make sure has unique entries. Solved that using Paul Irish's Duck Punching example #2 and tying it to onblur for that textbox.
The values entered into the textbox get broken out into a table. As the table can get very lengthy, I found Mottie's Tablesorter to work brilliantly.
The problem is, the the Duck Punching code is breaking the Tablesorter. The style for the Tablesorter is passed through just fine, but the table doesn't actually sort. BUT, when I comment out the Duck Punching code, Tablesorter miraculosly works.
My coding skills are not such that I can figure out why the two are conflicting. Any assistance would be much appreciated.
I haven't modified the Tablesorter code or added any special sorting elements to it...just following the very basic example right now. Here's the Duck Punching code which I've only modified to include the var for the textbox I need to have unique entries.
function ValidateTextBox1()
{
(function($){
var arr = document.getElementById("TextBox1").value.split(',');
var _old = $.unique;
$.unique = function(arr){
// do the default behavior only if we got an array of elements
if (!!arr[0].nodeType){
return _old.apply(this,arguments);
} else {
// reduce the array to contain no dupes via grep/inArray
return $.grep(arr,function(v,k){
return $.inArray(v,arr) === k;
});
}
};
})(jQuery);
}
The function above is in a separate js file which is called via onblur for TextBox1.
Then, I have a button which runs the following:
function GenerateTable()
{
var Entry1 = document.getElementById("TextBox1").value
var Entry2 = document.getElementById("TextBox2").value
var content = "<table id=myTable class=tablesorter ><thead><tr><th>Entry 1 Values</th><th>Entry 2 Value</th></tr></thead><tbody>"
var lines = Entry1.split(","),
i;
for (i = 0; i < lines.length; i++)
content += "<tr><td>" + (Entry1.split(",")[i]) + "</td><td>" + Entry2 + "</td></tr>";
content += "</tbody></table>"
$("#here_table").append(content);
$(function(){
$("#myTable").tablesorter({
theme: 'default'
});
});
}
The function will generate/append the table in a specific DIV.
If I leave in the validation code for TextBox1, the table will generate but isn't sortable (though it does manage to still pull the theme).
If I remove the validation code, the table will generate and is sortable.

The validateText box function above will not work as expected. In this case, "duck-punching" is not even necessary.
Here is how I would fix the script (demo):
HTML
<textarea id="textbox1">6,1,7,5,3,4,3,2,4</textarea><br>
<textarea id="textbox2">column 2</textarea><br>
<button>Build Table</button>
<div id="here_table"></div>
Script (requires jQuery 1.7+)
(function($) {
// bind to button
$(function () {
$('button').on('click', function () {
// disable button to prevent multiple updates
$(this).prop('disabled', true);
generateTable();
});
});
function unique(arr) {
return $.grep(arr, function (v, k) {
return $.inArray(v, arr) === k;
});
}
function generateTable() {
var i,
$wrap = $('#here_table'),
// get text box value, remove unwanted
// spaces/tabs/carriage returns & create an array
val = $('#textbox1').val().split(/\s*,\s*/),
// get unique values for Entry1
entry1 = unique( val ),
entry2 = $('#textbox2').val(),
content = "";
// build tbody rows
for (i = 0; i < entry1.length; i++) {
content += "<tr><td>" + (entry1[i] || '?') + "</td><td>" + entry2 + "</td></tr>";
}
// update or create table
if ($wrap.find('table').length) {
// table exists, just update the data
$wrap.find('tbody').remove();
$wrap.find('table')
.append(content)
.trigger('update');
} else {
// table doesn't exist, build it from scratch
$wrap
.html('<table id=myTable class=tablesorter><thead><tr>' +
'<th>Entry 1 Values</th>' +
'<th>Entry 2 Value</th>' +
'</tr></thead><tbody>' + content + '</tbody></table>')
.find('table')
.tablesorter({
theme: 'blue'
});
}
// enable the button to allow updating the table
$('button').prop('disabled', false);
}
})(jQuery);
I tried to add a few comments to make more clear what each step is doing. Please feel free to ask for any clarification.

Adding a custom attribute in ASP.NET. accessing it in JQuery

I have a table that is created in ASP.NET C# code behind. The table has several levels of groupings, and when I create the rows for the outer most grouping, I add an custom attribute as follows:
foreach (Table2Row row in Table2Data)
{
// skipping a bunch of irrelevent stuff
...
tr_group.Attributes.Add("RowsToToggle", String.Format(".InnerRowGroupId_{0}", row.GroupHeaderId));
...
}
The attribute is the CSS class name of the inner level rows that I would like to toggle. When the user clicks on the outer level row, I would like to call JQuery Toggle function for all inner level rows that match the custom attribute.
To achieve that effect, I have attached an onclick event to the header rows with the following script in the aspx file:
var tableId = '<%= Table2MainTable.ClientID %>';
$(document).ready(function () {
var table = document.getElementById(tableId);
var groupRows = table.getElementsByClassName("Table2GroupHeaderRow");
for (i = 0; i < groupRows.length; i++) {
table.groupRows[i].onclick = function () { ToggleOnRowClick(table.rows[i]); }
}
});
function ToggleOnRowClick(row) {
var r = $('#' + row.id);
var innerRows = r.attr('RowsToToggle');
$(innerRows ).toggle();
}
So, clicking anywhere on the header row should call the function ToggleOnRowClick, which should then toggle the set of rows below it via the custom attribute RowsToToggle.
When I set a (FireBug) break point in the ToggleOnRow function, the variable r appears to be pointing to the correct object. However, innerRows is not getting set but instead remains null. So am I setting the custom attribute incorrectly in ASP.NET or reading in incorrectly in JQuery?

You did not post the code to generate inner level rows, I am assuming you sat proper classes to them.
There are few issues with the jquery you posted. This line wouldn't work:
table.groupRows[i].onclick = function () { ToggleOnRowClick(table.rows[i]); }
You don't have any groupRows property defined for table object.
We don't care about table row anymore, we care about groupRows[i] and want to pass it to ToggleOnRowClick function.
This line in next function is also wrong:var r = $('#' + row.id);
Solution: Change your script to this:
var tableId = '<%= Table2MainTable.ClientID %>';
$(document).ready(function () {
var table = document.getElementById(tableId);
var groupRows = table.getElementsByClassName("Table2GroupHeaderRow");
for (i = 0; i < groupRows.length; i++) {
groupRows[i].onclick = function () { ToggleOnRowClick(this); }
}
});
function ToggleOnRowClick(row) {
//var r = $('#' + row.id);
var innerRows = $(row).attr('RowsToToggle');
$("." + innerRows).toggle();
}
I have tested the code with dummy data. So if you have any issue, PM me.

This line is your culprit:
table.groupRows[i].onclick = function () { ToggleOnRowClick(table.rows[i])
By the time the event handler runs, table.rows might still exist, but i will be set to groupRows.length+1, which is out of bounds for the array. The handler will get called with an argument of undefined.
Remember, Javascript is an interpreted language! The expression "table.rows[i]" will get interpeted when the handler runs. It will use the last value of i (which will still be set to the value that caused your for loop to end, groupRows.length+1).
Just use
table.groupRows[i].onclick = function () { ToggleOnRowClick(this) }

So, First you shouldn't use custom attributes... they are a sin!
Please use data attributes instead, so that is what I'm going to use in the code, should be an easy fix regardless.
If this doesn't work then I'd be very very interested in seeing a dumbed down HTML snippet of the actual output.
$(document).ready(function () {
$('#MYTABLE').on('click', '.Table2GroupHeader', function() {
var attr_if_you_insist_on_sinning = $(this).attr("RowsToToggle");
var data_if_you_like_not_sinning = $(this).data("RowsToToggle");
//if the row is like <tr data-RowsToToggle=".BLAH" or th etc
//asumming you set the attribute to .BLAH then:
var rows_to_toggle = $(data_if_you_like_not_sinning);
rows_to_toggle.toggle();
//assuming you set it to BLAH then:
var rows_to_toggle = $("."+ data_if_you_like_not_sinning);
rows_to_toggle.toggle();
});
});

$(document).ready(function () {
$('#<%= Table2MainTable.ClientID %> .Table2GroupHeader').each(function(){
$(this).click(function(){
$(this).toggle();
});
});
});

Iterate through appended items using jQuery

Question
I have a form that uses jQuery for magic. On that form is a button Add Account. That button appends fields Account and Amount and also another button Remove Account (which if you can guess, removes those two fields). This all works nicely...
On the same form there is another field Salary, which I would like to compare with the total of all the Amount fields. The problem is when I use jQuery's $.each() to iterate through the Amount fields it only recognizes those fields that were present in the DOM when the page loaded, and not the newly added fields.
How can I iterate through these appended Amount fields? (Or maybe there is a better to do this altogether?)
What I'm doing now:
$(document).ready(function(){
$('#form').on('keyup', '.amount', balanceAmountsWithSalary);
});
var balanceAmountsWithSalary = function(){
var salary = parseInt($('#salary').val(),10);
var total = 0;
$('#accounts .account').each(function(){
var amount = parseInt($(this).find('.amount').val(),10);
total += amount;
});
if (total === salary) {
$('#accounts .account').each(function(){
// Do some stuff to each input.amount located in div.account
});
} else {
$('#accounts .account').each(function(){
// Do some BAD stuff to each input.amount located in div.account
});
}
}
Thanks!
Answer
So it probably would've been more helpful to include the rest of my code at the outset as the problem was a simple error in the add account event. I mislabeled my container class adding an "s" to name of the appended items only. In any case thats for the comments! Posting an example on jsFiddle helped me find this error, so here is the thing in action in case you were wondering.

As HTML code and code of Dynamic adding inputs are not provided, I have edited an existing Fiddler to get total of dynamic added input field.
In this fiddler simple for loop is used to calculate total amount.
Here is a fiddler which might help you.
//button click get total
$('#GetTotal').click( function(event){
var tableID = "NewInvoiceTable";
GetTotalAmount(tableID);
return false;
});
//Get total
function GetTotalAmount(tableID)
{
var i = $('#' + tableID + ' tr').length;
alert("Total Rows -" + i);
var TotAmt = 0;
for(j=0;j<i;j++)
{
TotAmt += parseInt($('#TotalInline-' + j).val());
}
alert("Total Amount - " + TotAmt);
}
