I have a html page. It contains table. I want to find out a particular cell's index which is in the same position. ie, Here is my table,
<pre lang="HTML">
<table border="1">
   <tr>
      <td rowspan="2">Label 1</td>
      <td rowspan="2">Label 2</td>
      <td colspan="2">Label 3</td>
      <td>Something else</td>
   </tr>
   <tr>
      <td>Item 1</td>
      <td>Item 2</td>
      <td>Item 3</td>
   </tr>
   <tr>
      <td> 1</td>
      <td> 2</td>
      <td> 3</td>
      <td> 4</td>
      <td> 5</td>
   </tr>
</table>
</pre>
Here I want to find the index of the next row's td in the same position of item2.(ie, index of 4) . How it is possible with jQuery? (if click item 2 , i want to alert index of<td>4</td><pre lang="HTML"></pre>)

Solution 1

$("table tr td").click(function () {
  var currentIndex = $(this).index();                
  $(this).closest('tr').next().find("td:eq(" + currentIndex + ")")
});

This will give you same index td in next row.
