将表单数据插入Jquery Datatable

Question

I am trying to inserting data to jquery Datatable. But it did not insert correctly.

 $(document).ready(function() { var t = $('#example').DataTable(); var branchName = $("#branchName option:selected").val(); var accountNo = $("#accountNo").val(); $('#addRow').on('click', function() { t.row.add([branchName, accountNo]).draw(); }); }); 

 <link href="//cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/datatables/1.10.7/css/jquery.dataTables.min.css" rel="stylesheet"> <script src="//cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.4/jquery.min.js"></script> <script src="//cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/datatables/1.10.7/js/jquery.dataTables.min.js"></script> <div class="form-group"> <label class="control-label col-sm-4">Branch</label> <div class="col-sm-8"> <select class="form-control" name="branches" id="branchName"> <option>--Select--</option> <option value="C01">C01</option> <option value="C02">C02</option> </select> </div> </div> <div class="form-group"> <label class="control-label col-sm-4">Account No.</label> <div class="col-sm-8"> <input type="text" class="form-control" id="accountNo" name="accountNo"> </div> </div> <div class="form-group"> <label class="control-label col-sm-4"></label> <div class="col-sm-8"> <button type="button" class="btn btn-primary-action" id="addRow"> Add to Grid</button> </div> </div> <table id="example" class="display" cellspacing="0" width="100%"> <thead> <tr> <th>Branch</th> <th>Acc. No.</th> </tr> </thead> </table> 

I alerted drop down and text box value. It's working well. I think there is an issue when record insert into data-table. If you know any solution please mention.

You need to move the variables into the click handler, otherwise they are set on page load and not updated after you change the values.

$(document).ready(function() {
  var t = $('#example').DataTable();

  $('#addRow').on('click', function() {
    var branchName = $("#branchName option:selected").val();
    var accountNo = $("#accountNo").val();
    t.row.add([branchName, accountNo]).draw();
  });
});

Updated snippet:

 $(document).ready(function() { var t = $('#example').DataTable(); $('#addRow').on('click', function() { var branchName = $("#branchName option:selected").val(); var accountNo = $("#accountNo").val(); t.row.add([branchName, accountNo]).draw(); }); });
