Javascript getting the value of an input in a table
You should do something like this:
var lv_input = document.getElementById("table01").rows[0].cells[2].firstChild.value;
console.log(lv_input);
or use the querySelector
to find the input element
var lv_input = document.getElementById("table01").rows[0].cells[2].querySelector('input').value;
console.log(lv_input);

I'm just wondering if it's possible to get the value of an html input in a table without naming each input separately and using getElementById directly onto the input so if I had the following table
<table id="table01"> <tr> <td>row 0 cell 0</td> <td>row 0 cell 1</td> </tr> <tr> <td>row 1 cell 0</td> <td>row 1 cell 1</td> </tr> </table>
I know in Javascript you can use the following to get the value of a specific cell in a specific row using the following
var lv_value = document.getElementById("table01").rows[0].cells[1].innerHTML; console.log(lv_cont);
and this would give me the value I want which is "row 0 cell 1".
If I had a table like the following however
<table id="table01"> <tr> <td>row 0 cell 0</td> <td>row 0 cell 1</td> <td><input type="text" class="tbl_input"></input></td> </tr> <tr> <td>row 1 cell 0</td> <td>row 1 cell 1</td> <td><input type="text" class="tbl_input"></input></td> </tr> </table>
Is it then possible to do something along the lines of
<!-- this is obviously wrong --> var lv_input = document.getElementById("table01").rows[0].cells[2].input.value; console.log(lv_input);
to get the value of the input in the first row
