Get table id by click in td using jQuery

Question

I have a tr in a table header that contains several input fields.

Is there a way that by click on one of these input fields I can get the id of the parent table ?

Answer 1

You should delegate event to avoid multiple handlers, and then use delegateTarget to target current TABLE:

$('table').on('click', 'input', function (e) {
    alert(e.delegateTarget.id);
});
