My Web Page Rental Web page
when i try to fill data in another row except first row, my input data is empty but didn't get any error, can any one help me with this problem? Thanks Before
CodePudding user response:
The reason it only works for the first row is because you are identifying the input using its ID, but all the input IDs are the same and you can only have one element with a particular ID on a page. So JQuery locates the first one it finds and ignores all the others.
Try this instead (I've truncated your code for brevity):
$("#newrentals").on("click", ".js-submit1", function () {
const button = $(this);
const dateVal = button.siblings('input').val();
});
