Get Table Contents using HTML

Question

<Table>
<tr>

<td>ID</td>
<td>NAME</td>
<td>MARKS</td>
<td>Grade</td>
<td><a href="AddRecord.jsp" >Update Record</a> </td>

</tr>
</Table>

How can I get table contents for modification, when I press Update hyperlink button? or how can I send these contents as a parameter to the page "AddRecord.asp".

Answer 1

If you are trying to submit a new row to a data table it sounds to me like you just need to use a traditional <form> and make the "Update Record" a submit type button. You are going to have to read up on using databases and JSP to process your update requests.

I suggest you start by reading on submitting forms at: http://www.w3schools.com/tags/att_form_action.asp

Answer 2

I think your best best is AJAX and JavaScript. Make an AJAX call to get the content and add it to the DOM using JavaScript.
