JavaScript: How to iterate through a table and remove the second cell in Javascript

Lets say that I have a very simple table:

<table>
   <tr>
      <td>TextFirst</td>
      <td>TextSecond</td>
   </tr>
</table>开发者_JAVA技巧

How can I traverse the table and remove "TextSecond". The table could be any number of rows or cells.

In your posted example you have, at least, two options I can think of:

$('td:nth-child(2)').remove();

Or:

$('tr td:eq(1)').remove(); // zero-based index, thanks @ZDYN for the catch

Or, in plain JavaScript:

var removeThis = document.getElementsByTagName('td')[1];
removeThis.parentNode.removeChild(removeThis);

$("table td:nth-child(2)").remove()

    //var table = document.getElementById("?");
    for (i=0; i < table.rows.length; i++)
    {
        if (table.rows[i].cells.length > 1)
            table.rows[i].cells[1].removeNode(true);
    }

or if you want to delete cells based on some condition. just because

    //var table = document.getElementById("?");
    for (i=0; i < table.rows.length; i++)
    {
        for (j = table.rows[i].cells.length - 1; j >= 0; j--)
        {
            if (table.rows[i].cells[j].innerHTML == 'TextSecond')
                table.rows[i].cells[j].removeNode(true);
        }
    }

You can use nth-child... : $('table :nth-child(2)').remove(); JSFIDDLE
