I'm looking for a good way to get cells X-Y position in a table. (do not confuse it with css-position, I am looking for X and Y coordinate in Cartesian coordinate system).
As we know, we can get particular cell in a table using ex: $('#grid')[0].rows[5].cells[7]
.
But, what if I want to get the value 5x7
when I click on particular cell, i.e:
$('#grid td').click(function(){
alert("My position in table is: " + myPosition.X + "x" + myPosition.Y);
});
I guess, the easiest way is to add innerHTML, ID or CSS class to every cell (<td class="p-5x7">
etc.) when creating table in back end, then parse it, and return on click, but is there any way to get these coordinates based purely on DOM?
