Hi everyone,

Im looking for a simple function to add / remove a table row for my website. I have searched high and low for a script that does it... but no dice...

can anyone shoot me a link or post a snippet of code that would enable me to create an additional table row.

cheers

how can i make it please? Because I'm new in this Community

Only the original poster can mark it solved, and since this was tacked on to the end of a two year old thread, I doubt that person is going to mark it solved for someone else.

see bottom of the page "mark as solved". click that link

Re-read my post. He cannot mark solved a thread that he hijacked - only the original author can mark it.

Is it possible to create an ID for each row, and manipulate that?

Thanks for yuo
:)

thank you for the solution..:)
