    <p>I have a table made up of a row of 3 input elements: Price, Quanity, and Total. Under that, I have two links I can click to dynamically generate another row in the table. All that is working well, but actually calculating a value for the total element is giving me trouble. I know how to calculate the value of the first total element but I'm having trouble extending this functionality when I add a new row to the table. Here's the html:</p> <pre><code>&lt;table id="table" border="0"&gt; &lt;thead&gt; &lt;th&gt;Price&lt;/th&gt;&lt;th&gt;Quantity&lt;/th&gt;&lt;th&gt;Total&lt;/th&gt; &lt;/thead&gt; &lt;tbody&gt; &lt;tr&gt; &lt;td&gt;&lt;input id ="price" type = "text"&gt;&lt;/input&gt;&lt;/td&gt; &lt;td&gt;&lt;input id ="quantity" type = "text"&gt;&lt;/input&gt;&lt;/td&gt; &lt;td&gt;&lt;input id ="total" type = "text"&gt;&lt;/input&gt;&lt;/td&gt; &lt;/tr&gt; &lt;/tbody&gt; &lt;/table&gt; &lt;a href="#" id="add"&gt;Add New&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="#" id="remove"&gt;Remove&lt;/a&gt; </code></pre> <p>Here's the jquery I'm using:</p> <pre><code>$(function(){ $('a#add').click(function(){ $('#table &gt; tbody').append('&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td&gt;&lt;input id ="price" type = "text"&gt;&lt;/input&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td&gt;&lt;input id ="quantity" type = "text"&gt;&lt;/input&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td&gt;&lt;input id ="total" type = "text"&gt;&lt;/input&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;'); }); $('a#remove').click(function(){ $('#table &gt; tbody &gt; tr:last').remove(); }); }); $(function(){ $('a#calc').click(function(){ var q = $('input#quantity').val(); var p = $('input#price').val(); var tot = (q*p); $('input#total').val(tot); }); }); </code></pre> <p>I'm new to jquery so there's probably a simple method I don't know about that selects the relevant fields I want to calculate. Any guidance would be greatly appreciated.</p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
