Re: I want to use the passed argument to clear the table

Show all headers | View raw

I did it like this and now it works.
function CleanAllRows(tableID)
      {
          $("#" + tableID).find("tr:gt(0)").remove();
      }

I thought I found it when I wrote like this
$("#" + "tableID" + " tr:gt(0)").remove();
but I was wrong.

The only thing that seems to work is if I write like this
$("#myGrid tr:gt(0)").remove();

It anyone that have any suggestion ?

Just do an

  alert("#" + tableID + "tr:gt(0)");

and you'll probably can spot the error. :)
