Delete current row


I have the following...

<table>
<tr>
<td>
Test
</td>
<td>
<a href='NEEDCOEHERE'>delete row</a>
</td>
</tr>
</table>

How could I delete the current row that the href is a part of? I would
like to try to stay away from using IDs.

Thanks in advance,

Mardo

You don't need code here, leave the href with a real url ;]

And add the JavaScript behaviou using DOM and the so-called addEvent.

</td>
</tr>
</table>

Well, if you're inside the "<a>", you just need to go up into the node
chain and remove the first <tr> that you find ;]

Something like this:

for(var x = YourCurrentNode, r = /^tr$/i; !r.test(x.nodeName) &&
x.parentNode; x = x.parentNode);
