Demo of Adding and removing elements by user and displaying

Read How Users can add elements to an array & than display all elements.

In above tutorial we will add another function to delete any element by user. Our function will collect key number by using indexOf method and then remove the element by using splice function. Here is the code for our function.
function remove_element(index_no){
var t1=data.splice(index_no,1);
disp(); // displaying the array elements
}
Demo is here


Here is the code

</head>

<body>
 <script type="text/javascript">
var data = new Array(); // creating array

function add_element(){
data.push(document.getElementById('t1').value); // adding element to array
document.getElementById('t1').value=''; // Making the text box blank
disp(); // displaying the array elements
}
function remove_element(index_no){
var t1=data.splice(index_no,1);
disp(); // displaying the array elements
}
function disp(){
var str='';
str = 'total number of elements in data array : ' + data.length + '<br>';
for (i=0;i<data.length;i++) 
{ 
str += i + ':'+data[i] + " <a href=# onClick='remove_element("+data.indexOf(data[i])+")'> Remove</a> " + "<br >";  // adding each element with key number to variable
} 

document.getElementById('disp').innerHTML=str; // Display the elements of the array
}
</script>

<input type=text  id='t1'><input type=button value='Add' onClick='add_element()';>
<div id=disp></div>

    You can display the value by reading the key of the array. In side the function you can see one for loop is used with variable i, if i value is taken from user then the corresponding value can be displayed.

    You have to first collect the data from the table by using any server side script and SQL.

    While displaying the data you can use the array push to insert data to the JavaScript array. Note that while using server side script you have to echo or print the client side JavaScript code to store values inside array.
