How Do I Make a Full Table Row Clickable?

Update 7/28/2010: I just wrote a new version of this article using jQuery. You can find the new article here.

It's a common scenario to display an HTML table with items, like products, employees and so on, and then link each item to a detail page where you can display the full details of this item.

The link is often represented by a button or text link in one of the columns. But to make it easier for your users to select a specific item, you could make the full row clickable. With a bit of JavaScript, this is pretty easy to do.

Often when people try to implement this behavior, they try to add an HTML link to each table cell, like this:
 

<table>
<tr>
  <td><a href="Details.asp">John</a></td>
  <td><a href="Details.asp">Doe</a></td>
</tr>
</table>

The disadvantage of this method is that not the entire table cell is linked, but just the text in that cell. You also need to add a lot of extra code to make each cell clickable.

To make the full row selectable, you should add the link to the <tr> instead of to individual table cells. Since you're not allowed to place an <a> tag around a table row, you'll have to think a little bit outside the box to solve this puzzle. Instead of using the <a> tag, you can implement a click handler with a JavaScript method attached to it for the table row as in the example below. To clearly communicate to the user that the entire table is clickable, I also added some code that changes the background color of the table row when the mouse hovers over it. This makes it easier to see which row is selected.

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN"
      "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">
<html>
  <head>
    <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" 
             content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" />
    <title>Full Row Select</title>
    <script type="text/javascript">
    function ChangeColor(tableRow, highLight)
    {
    if (highLight)
    {
      tableRow.style.backgroundColor = '#dcfac9';
    }
    else
    {
      tableRow.style.backgroundColor = 'white';
    }
  }

  function DoNav(theUrl)
  {
  document.location.href = theUrl;
  }
  </script>
</head>
<body>
  <table width="100%" border="1" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0">
  <tr onmouseover="ChangeColor(this, true);" 
              onmouseout="ChangeColor(this, false);" 
              onclick="DoNav('http://www.yahoo.com/');">
    <td>1</td>
    <td>2</td>
    <td>3</td>
  </tr>
  <tr onmouseover="ChangeColor(this, true);" 
              onmouseout="ChangeColor(this, false);" 
              onclick="DoNav('http://www.microsoft.com/');">
    <td>4</td>
    <td>5</td>
    <td>6</td>
  </tr>
  <tr onmouseover="ChangeColor(this, true);" 
              onmouseout="ChangeColor(this, false);" 
              onclick="DoNav('http://Imar.Spaanjaars.Com/');">
    <td>7</td>
    <td>8</td>
    <td>9</td>
  </tr>
  </table>
</body>
</html>

On each <tr> element I have added the onclick attribute that calls the DoNav method. This will take the user to a new page whenever the user has clicked somewhere in the table row. To change the color of the rows when the mouse hovers over the table, I have also added the onmouseover and onmouseout attributes that call the ChangeColor method to change the background color of the table row.

You can check out a working example of this code. In the example I also added a bit of CSS to influence the borders of the table, so each row has a nice thin black border at the top and bottom side, but not between the columns on the left and right side. Look at the source of the page in the browser to see how it is done.

if you use firefox or an equivalent browser you can replace the onmouseover and onmouseout by a css style: tr:hover {background-color: Yellow; cursor: pointer;}.

nice script.. does anyone know how to impliment the cursor: pointer command over the cell??? it doesnt seem to be working...

Also, i when the page loads the cell has no border by default... so when mouseover over the cell occurs the page moves when border is added.. which is not a good thing.. any ideas to correct this bug??

thx ;)
On Wednesday, April 26, 2006 6:54:53 PM Imar Spaanjaars said:
Hi Wayne,

Are you saying you have no border initially, but want to add one when you hover? In that case, the easiest thing to do is to *add* a border when the page initially loads, but you should give it the same color as the background. That way, the border is already there, taking up its space, and it only changes its color when you hover.

To change the cursor, you should be able to do something like this:

tableRow.style.cursor="hand";

tableRow.style.cursor="pointer";

Hope this helps,

Imar

There's only one drawback to this solution (which I was using already)--the UI of the web browser becomes broken in that the user no longer has the option of "open in a new tab/window" in the context menu...and emulating this is painful and sketchy.  Is there any way to have the functionality of surrounding a TR with an A without breaking W3C specs?

On Tuesday, July 25, 2006 8:49:20 PM Imar Spaanjaars said:
Hi Kevin,

Yeah, good point.

I see at least two fixes (work arounds, actually).

One is to use the old method, where each td contains an a tag that spans the entire cell (using display:block and an explicit width).

Alternatively, you could use JavaScript to detect whether the shift key was pressed and then open a new window instead of opening a new page in the same window....

Cheers,

Imar

Thanks Imar...I'll have to think about it.  I found out most of my users don't ever use tabs or new windows, so I guess it'd just be for me.  ;)  Anyway, I might end up just sending row data from the server using JSON and building the page from the data using JavaScript, so if I'm doing that anyway, I think I might end up using the 'old method' you cited.

Thanks again,

You'd use window.open instead. Do a Google search for it combined with the word JavaScript and you'll find many examples, including an explanation of all the options for the open function.

Hi, thanks for your script, it is helping me a lot : ) I am trying to customize a thing. For example, my link is:

[a href="img/port/001.jpg" rel="lightbox[test]"][img border="0" src="img/port/001.jpg" width="109" height="80"][/a]

So in the onclick I use:

[onclick="DoNav('img/port/001.jpg);"]

and it is working ok. But I really need to use the rel="lightbox[test]" with the onclick event. Do you think it is possible to do it using this script?

Thanks for a great, simple and efficient script.

Hi Imar,

Thanks for the reply ^^

Well, actually I am trying to use this: http://www.huddletogether.com/projects/lightbox2/

So, to use this i need to put rel="lightbox" in the link line (note the PART 2 from the LightBox webpage).

So, there is a way to write a text in a cell and use your script to click in the cell and load the LightBox? I think there is a possibility to the DoNav function handle this, but I dunno why.

Thanks again for the reply. ^^
On Monday, August 27, 2007 7:35:56 PM Imar Spaanjaars said:
Hi Paul,

Right, I see. I don't think so, or you may need to change the lightbox scripts.

As far as I know, lightbox intercepts the click on the link, finds the rel attribute and acts accordingly. I don't think (or at least I don't know how to do it) it will work with JavaScript generated clicks.

Sorry,

Imar

Hi robin,

Isn't that because of this:

You pass values through the query string, yet you try to get the value from the post variables collection.

Great script. Thanks a bunch.

I am working on a PHP application which requires one to login. Once logged in, and one visits the current.php page for the first time, which lists a bunch of TR's in which I am using your DoNav function to link to another php page it logs the user out of the system. When the user logs back in and repeats the process it works just fine.

This only occurs the first time. Any future attempts to perform the same action allows for the link to work and open the php page I am linking to.

Do you think this is a problem with the JavaScript or PHP? Do you have any suggestions?

Thanks

Hi YM,

You can apply a title attribute to the table row or to the individual table cells.

Alternatively, you may want to look into jQuery or other client side JavaScript frameworks.

Hello Imar
I wont that when I click on a table row send ID from one table to another but in the same page not url. just a function..
My code is:

function clickOnTableRow()

var tableObj = this.parentNode;
if(tableObj.tagName!='TABLE')tableObj = tableObj.parentNode;
if(activeRowClickArray[tableObj.id] && this!=activeRowClickArray[tableObj.id]){
activeRowClickArray[tableObj.id].className='DOGODEK_ID';
}
this.className = arrayOfClickClasses[tableObj.id];
activeRowClickArray[tableObj.id] = this;
}

now this just do that when I click th row become red now I wont that when I click goes ID from Up table into down table.
A code for send ID is:

function nad(ID, LINK_ID)
{

if (LINK_ID != '')
{
self.location.href  = 'crm_dogodek.php?ID=' + ID
+'&POD_ID='  + ID;
}
else {
self.location.href  = 'crm_dogodek.php?ID=' + ''
+'&POD_ID='  + ID;

I had a different problem. I wanted to make an entire row clickable except for one cell because it had a checkbox.

[tr onclick="fn2()"]
    [td]some element[/td]
    [td]some element[/td]
    .....
    [td onclick="fn1()"]a checkbox is here[/td]
[/tr]

what I did was:
1. created an onclick event for that cell and set a variable to true when the onclick event  for that cell was called.
2. Then the row already had the onclick event written (which i didnt want to execute). so I checked the variable at the begining of the fn.
if(checkboxWasClicked) {checkWasClicked = false; return;}
The false is given to reset the flag.

Here is the pseudo code:

var checkboxWasClicked = false;
fn1()
{
    checkboxWasClicked = true;
}
fn2()
{
    if (checkboxWasClicked) {
        checkboxWasClicked = false;
        return;
        }
    //some other code that should execute if clicked on row except for that cell.
}

I got this idea from the above examples.
So Thanks a lot.

Hi Imar,
Yes, with a standard anchor tag the link to open a .pdf works fine.  That was how my table was before.  The ASP queries the MS Access database, writes a table, and uses a field from the database as the filename to create a link to the corresponding .pdf.

I implemented your Clickable Row solution, and the Color Change works fine.  However, nothing happens when I click.  It just doesn't seem to recognize my path as a link.

Any thoughts would be appreciated.  Thanks much!

On Friday, April 02, 2010 8:24:18 PM Imar Spaanjaars said:
Hi Girish,

Yes, it's possible. You could give each input box a unique ID and pass that in the hover call. E.g.:

onmouseover="ChangeColor(this, true. 'TextBox1');"

Then you can use document.getElementById and pass it the ID of the text box.

Note: this article is pretty old. Much of what is presented here can be accomplished with just a tiny but of jQuery code.

How can I pass these values to the DoNav Function?

Hi Rich,

You can give each cell a unique ID and then use document.getElementById('YourCellId').innerHTML or innerText to get at the contents of the cell.

Alternatively, look into jQuery which makes these scenarios much easier as it allows you to easily traverse the DOM.

Trying to use your code at the top of this page but getting "PHP Parse error:  syntax error, unexpected T_ENCAPSED_AND_WHITESPACE, expecting T_STRING or T_VARIABLE or T_NUM_STRING" errors that are eluding to the onmouseover="ChangeColor(this, true);"
onmouseout="ChangeColor(this, false);"
onclick="DoNav('http://www.yahoo.com/');"
functions within the "tr" tag.  The only difference in how I'm using the code is I'm encoding the "tr" tag in php code using the echo command.  I've tried all different combinations of single and double quotes and but can't get it to work.  Any assistance would be appreciated!

Hi steve,

Hard to say without seeing your PHP code. Can you post this on a public forum such as this one instead:
http://p2p.wrox.com/index.php?referrerid=385

Easier to share code and easier for others to join the discussion.

Cheers,

Imar

For those of you following this article, I just posted an updated version of this article that uses jQuery instead of in-line JavaScript. You can find the article here: http://imar.spaanjaars.com/549/how-do-i-make-a-full-table-row-clickable-using-jquery
