The following script clones an existing table row to match the number of rows in a detail table.
Afterwards it iterates over the rows to populate the fields.
// Create the number of rows based on the records in the detail
table
// We start at 1 so the boilerplate row is used too and there is no
need to delete that row
for(var r = 1; r < record.tables['detail'].length; r++) {
results.parent().append(results.clone());
}
// Iterate over the rows and populate them with the data from the
accompanying data row
query("#table_2 > tbody > tr").each(function(i) {
this.find('@ItemNumber@').text( record.tables['detail'][i].fields
["ItemNumber"]);
this.find('@ItemOrdered@').text( record.tables['detail'][i].fields
["ItemOrdered"]);
this.find('@ItemTotal@').text( record.tables['detail'][i].fields
["ItemTotal"]);
this.find('@ItemDesc@').text( record.tables['detail'][i].fields
["ItemDesc"]);
this.find('@nr@').text(i);
});
The following script clones and populates a boilerplate row. Once completed you will need to
hide the boilerplate row.
closest()
For each element in a set, this function gets the first parent element that matches a selector, by
testing the element itself and traversing up through its ancestors in the DOM tree. (In HTML, a
parent is an element that contains another element.)
To get a child element or all child elements, use children() (see "Examples" on the previous
page).
The closest() command is based on the closest() command found in the jQuery library:
https://api.jquery.com/closest/.
