so i have a users table, and i wanna add a column to the table where i can get to change the status of the user to active/inactive using bootstrap dropdown menu. here is the code for the tables:
<table class="table">
<thead>
<tr>
<th>#</th>
<th>First Name</th>
<th>Last Name</th>
<th>Status</th>
</tr>
</thead>
<tbody>
<tr>
<th scope="row">1</th>
<td>Mark</td>
<td>Otto</td>
<td>
<div class="dropdown">
<button class="btn btn-outline-secondary dropdown-toggle" type="button" data-toggle="dropdown" aria-haspopup="true" aria-expanded="false">
Active
</button>
<div class="dropdown-menu" aria-labelledby="dropdownMenuButton">
<a class="dropdown-item" href="#">Active</a>
<a class="dropdown-item" href="#">Inactive</a>
</div>
</div>
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<th scope="row">2</th>
<td>Jacob</td>
<td>Thornton</td>
<td>
<div class="dropdown">
<button class="btn btn-outline-secondary dropdown-toggle" type="button" data-toggle="dropdown" aria-haspopup="true" aria-expanded="false">
Active
</button>
<div class="dropdown-menu" aria-labelledby="dropdownMenuButton">
<a class="dropdown-item" href="#">Active</a>
<a class="dropdown-item" href="#">Inactive</a>
</div>
</div>
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<th scope="row">3</th>
<td>Larry</td>
<td>the Bird</td>
<td>
<div class="dropdown">
<button class="btn btn-outline-secondary dropdown-toggle" type="button" data-toggle="dropdown" aria-haspopup="true" aria-expanded="false">
Active
</button>
<div class="dropdown-menu" aria-labelledby="dropdownMenuButton">
<a class="dropdown-item" href="#">Active</a>
<a class="dropdown-item" href="#">Inactive</a>
</div>
</div>
</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
i added a JQuery snippet at the end. what this snippet does is changing the dropdown-menu
label based on the clicked dropdown-item
.
$(function(){
$(".dropdown-menu").on('click', 'a', function(){
$(".btn:first-child").text($(this).text());
$(".btn:first-child").val($(this).text());
});
});
when i change one record's status all other records are effected with that change. i tried using functions like .find()
and .siblings()
and even taking off the id="dropdownMenuButton"
but couldn't fix it. could someone help me get around this issue.
