I have multiple table (tbUser, tbRole, tbJob) and i want to make my code simple.
this is what i done before:
var userTable = $('#tbUser').DataTable(); var roleTable = $('#tbRole').DataTable(); var jobTable = $('#tbJob').DataTable();
Each tables has different options, columns and have one thing in common has column [action] to put View/Edit/Remove button. Is there a simple way to do jquery event click action button in each table.
This is my code:
$('#tbUser tbody').on('click', '#btn_edit', function (e) { let index = $(this).parents('tr'); let data = userTable.row(index).data(); /** Something */ }); /** REPEAT EACH TABLE */
and I’ve tried :
$('table tbody').on('click', '#btn_edit', function (e) { let index = $(this).parents('tr'); let data = userTable.row(index).data(); //===> But how to change table dynamicly on this line /** Something */ });

Firstly your edit button needs to be targetted using a class not an ID, otherwise it will only ever find the first button.
Create an object that holds a reference to each of your tables. I’m using the table id as the key, and the instantiated datatable as the value.
const tables = { tbUser: userTable, tbRole: roleTable, tbJob: jobTable }
Then with your button click, identify which table it is part of and use that to grab the table instantiation from the object you created earlier
$('table tbody').on('click', '.btn_edit', function (e) { const tableId = this.closest('table').id; const datatable = tables[tableId]; const index = $(this).parents('tr'); const data = datatable.row(index).data(); /** Something */ });
