Add/remove HTML inside div using JavaScript

Question

I want to be able to add multiple rows to a div and also removing them. I have a '+' button at the top of the page which is for adding content. Then to the right of every row there is a '-' button that's for removing that very row. I just can't figure out the javascript code in this example.

This is my basic HTML structure:

<input type="button" value="+" onclick="addRow()">

<div id="content">

</div>

This is what I want to add inside the content div:

<input type="text" name="name" value="" />
<input type="text" name="value" value="" />
<label><input type="checkbox" name="check" value="1" />Checked?</label>
<input type="button" value="-" onclick="removeRow()">

Answer 1

You can do something like this.

function addRow() {
  const div = document.createElement('div');

  div.className = 'row';

  div.innerHTML = `
    <input type="text" name="name" value="" />
    <input type="text" name="value" value="" />
    <label> 
      <input type="checkbox" name="check" value="1" /> Checked? 
    </label>
    <input type="button" value="-" onclick="removeRow(this)" />
  `;

  document.getElementById('content').appendChild(div);
}

function removeRow(input) {
  document.getElementById('content').removeChild(input.parentNode);
}

To my most biggest surprise I present to you a DOM method I've never used before googeling this question and finding ancient insertAdjacentHTML on MDN (see CanIUse?insertAdjacentHTML for a pretty green compatibility table).

So using it you would write

 function addRow () { document.querySelector('#content').insertAdjacentHTML( 'afterbegin', `<div class="row"> <input type="text" name="name" value="" /> <input type="text" name="value" value="" /> <label><input type="checkbox" name="check" value="1" />Checked?</label> <input type="button" value="-" onclick="removeRow(this)"> </div>` ) } function removeRow (input) { input.parentNode.remove() }

 <input type="button" value="+" onclick="addRow()"> <div id="content"> </div>

Answer 3

You can use this function to add an child to a DOM element.

function addElement(parentId, elementTag, elementId, html) 

 {


// Adds an element to the document


    var p = document.getElementById(parentId);
    var newElement = document.createElement(elementTag);
    newElement.setAttribute('id', elementId);
    newElement.innerHTML = html;
    p.appendChild(newElement);
}



function removeElement(elementId) 

{

    // Removes an element from the document
    var element = document.getElementById(elementId);
    element.parentNode.removeChild(element);
}

Answer 4

Another solution is to use getDocumentById and insertAdjacentHTML .

Code:

function addRow() {

 const  div = document.getElementById('content');

 div.insertAdjacentHTML('afterbegin', 'PUT_HTML_HERE');

}

Check here, for more details: Element.insertAdjacentHTML()

Answer 5

make a class for that button lets say :

`<input type="button" value="+" class="b1" onclick="addRow()">`

your js should look like this :

$(document).ready(function(){
  $('.b1').click(function(){
      $('div').append('<input type="text"..etc ');
  });
});

要删除节点，您可以尝试此解决方案，它对我有帮助。

var rslt = (nodee=document.getElementById(id)).parentNode.removeChild(nodee);

Answer 8

please try following to generate

 function addRow()
    {
        var e1 = document.createElement("input");
        e1.type = "text";
        e1.name = "name1";

        var cont = document.getElementById("content")
        cont.appendChild(e1);

    }

Answer 9

I know it took too long, it means you can write more briefly.

 function addRow() { var inputName, inputValue, label, checkBox, checked, inputDecrease, content, Ptag; // div content = document.getElementById('content'); // P tag Ptag = document.createElement('p'); // first input inputName = document.createElement('input'); inputName.type = 'text'; inputName.name = 'name'; // Second input inputValue = document.createElement('input'); inputValue.type = 'text'; inputValue.name = 'Value'; // Label label = document.createElement('label'); // checkBox checkBox = document.createElement('input'); checkBox.type = 'checkbox'; checkBox.name = 'check'; checkBox.value = '1'; // Checked? checked = document.createTextNode('Checked?'); // inputDecrease inputDecrease = document.createElement('input'); inputDecrease.type = 'button'; inputDecrease.value = '-'; inputDecrease.setAttribute('onclick', 'removeRow(this)') // Put in each other label.appendChild(checkBox); label.appendChild(checked); Ptag.appendChild(inputName); Ptag.appendChild(inputValue); Ptag.appendChild(label); Ptag.appendChild(inputDecrease); content.appendChild(Ptag); } function removeRow(input) { input.parentNode.remove() }

 * { margin: 3px 5px; }

 <input type="button" value="+" onclick="addRow()"> <div id="content"> </div>
