How to delete all table rows except first one using jQuery?
Given an HTML document containing an HTML table and the task is to delete the table row except the first one using jQuery.
Approach: First, we create a table using <table> tag and add a button containing btn id. When a user clicks on the button, then the jQuery function is called. The jQuery function removes all the rows except the first one using the remove() method.
Syntax:
$('#btn').click(function () {
$("#rTable").find("tr:gt(0)").remove();
});Example:
HTML
<!DOCTYPE HTML><html> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"> </script> <style> table, th, td { border: 1px solid black; border-collapse: collapse; } th, td { padding: 20px; } </style> <script> $(document).ready(function () { $('#btn').click(function () { $("#rTable").find("tr:gt(0)").remove(); }); }); </script></head> <body> <center> <h1 style="color: green;"> GeeksforGeeks </h1> <h4> Delete all table rows except first one using jQuery </h4> <table style="width:50%" id="rTable"> <tr> <th>Firstname</th> <th>Lastname</th> <th>Age</th> </tr> <tr> <td>Priya</td> <td>Sharma</td> <td>24</td> </tr> <tr> <td>Arun</td> <td>Singh</td> <td>32</td> </tr> <tr> <td>Sam</td> <td>Watson</td> <td>41</td> </tr> </table> <br><br> <button id="btn"> Remove All Row Except First One </button> </center></body> </html> |
