 alert($(this).text())   // Funny click here testing! or Second inline!  (o/p);
 alert($(this).parent().parent().attr("id"))  // 1 or 2 (o/p);

if you want to return 1 or 2 then you should use$(this).parent().parent().attr("id")cause first parent is td, and parent of that is tr which holds id value

Answer 2

+4 A:

You may want to check out the jQuery plugin jEditable, the successor to editable. Link: http://www.appelsiini.net/projects/jeditable

Back to your question, you can get the id of the TR node in your example by asking for the attribute using either parent(), closest() or parents(). I'd recommend against parent() because it expects you to leave the HTML nested exactly like in your example. Better to use parents() or closest() with a filter.

$(document).ready(function() {
    $('.click').each(function() {
        var $this = $(this);
        var $tr = $this.closest('tr');
        // Do stuff with $tr like checking it, extracting $tr.attr('id') ...
        $this.editable('updatedb.php', {
            indicator : "",
            tooltip : "Click to edit...",
            onblur : 'submit',
            style : "inherit"
        });
    });
}
