Hello, I have a comment template that outputs a table where the rows look like this:

And I want to be able to pull the rows from the table into another table based on the info in the second cell.

I wrote a javascript function, shown below, but I can't get it to compare the cell contents to check for HP. Any guidance you have here?

showHp() { var theRows=document.getElementById("table1").getElementsByTagName('tr'); var numRows=theRows.length; numRows=numRows-1; for(i=numRows;i>=0;i=i-1) { var rowMan=theRows[i].cells[1].firstChild.data; if (rowMan == "Hp") { var rowToAdd=document.getElementById("table1").rows[i]; var newRow=rowToAdd.cloneNode(true); document.getElementById("outPutTable").appendChild(newRow); } } }

Hello,

Different approach (TWiki native)

Check SearchPatternCookbook

Instead of producing a the option list of the example you could produce the table you want.
