If you need to slide and fade a table row at the same time  try using these   jQuery fn prepareTableRowForSliding   function          tr   this       tr children  td   wrapInner   lt div style  display  none     gt         return  tr      jQuery fn slideFadeTableRow   function speed  easing  callback         tr   this      if   tr is   hidden               tr show   find  td  gt  div   animate  opacity   toggle   height   toggle    speed  easing  callback         else            tr find  td  gt  div   animate  opacity   toggle   height   toggle    speed  easing  function                 tr hide                callback                          return  tr        document  ready function           tr special   hide   prepareTableRowForSliding           a toggle   toggle function             button     this            tr    button closest  tr special      this will be specific to your situation          tr slideFadeTableRow 300   swing   function                 button text  Hide table row                       function             button     this            tr    button closest  tr special      this will be specific to your situation          tr slideFadeTableRow 300   swing   function                 button text  Display table row

You could try wrapping the contents of the row in a  lt span gt  and having your selector be     detailed edit row span    - a bit hackish  but I just tested it and it works  I also tried the table-row suggestion above and it didn t seem to work   update  I ve been playing around with this problem  and from all indications jQuery needs the object it performs slideDown on to be a block element  So  no dice  I was able to conjure up a table where I used slideDown on a cell and it didn t affect the layout at all  so I am not sure how yours is set up  I think your only solution is to refactor the table in such a way that it s ok with that cell being a block  or just  show    the damn thing  Good luck

The plug offered by Vinny is really close  but I found and fixed a couple of small issues    It greedily targeted td elements beyond just the children of the row being hidden  This would have been kind of ok if it had then sought out those children when showing the row  While it got close  they all ended up with  display  none  on them  rendering them hidden  It didn t target child th elements at all  For table cells with lots of content  like a nested table with lots of rows   calling slideRow  up    regardless of the slideSpeed value provided  it d collapse the view of the row as soon as the padding animation was done  I fixed it so the padding animation doesn t trigger until the slideUp   method on the wrapping  is done    function         var sR             defaults

The plug offered by Vinny is really close  but I found and fixed a couple of small issues    It greedily targeted td elements beyond just the children of the row being hidden  This would have been kind of ok if it had then sought out those children when showing the row  While it got close  they all ended up with  display  none  on them  rendering them hidden  It didn t target child th elements at all  For table cells with lots of content  like a nested table with lots of rows   calling slideRow  up    regardless of the slideSpeed value provided  it d collapse the view of the row as soon as the padding animation was done  I fixed it so the padding animation doesn t trigger until the slideUp   method on the wrapping  is done    function         var sR             defaults

I had problems with all the other solutions offered but ended up doing this simple thing that is smooth as butter   Set up your HTML like so    lt tr id row1 style  height 0px  gt  lt td gt     lt div id div1 style  display none  gt      Hidden row content goes here    lt  div gt   lt  td gt  lt  tr gt    Then set up your javascript like so   function toggleRow rowid     var row   document getElementById  row    rowid     if row style height     0px              div    rowid  slideDown  fast          row style height    1px         else            div    rowid  slideUp  fast          row style height    0px               Basically  make the  invisible  row 0px high  with a div inside  Use the animation on the div  not the row  and then set the row height to 1px   To hide the row again  use the opposite animation on the div and set the row height back to 0px

Animations are not supported on table rows   From  Learning jQuery  by Chaffer and Swedberg       Table rows present particular   obstacles to animation  since browsers   use different values  table-row and   block  for their visible display   property   The  hide   and  show     methods  without animation  are always   safe to use with table rows   As of   jQuery version 1 1 3   fadeIn   and    fadeOut   can be used as well      You can wrap your td contents in a div and use the slideDown on that  You need to decide if the animation is worth the extra markup

User · Answer

I simply wrap the tr dynamically then remove it once the slideUp slideDown has complete  It s a pretty small overhead adding and removing one or a couple of  tags and then removing them once the animation is complete  I don t see any visible lag at all doing it   SlideUp       my table  gt  tbody  gt  tr my row     find  td     wrapInner   lt div style  display  block     gt      parent     find  td  gt  div     slideUp 700  function         this  parent   parent   remove            SlideDown       my table  gt  tbody  gt  tr my row     find  td     wrapInner   lt div style  display  none     gt      parent     find  td  gt  div     slideDown 700  function       var  set     this      set replaceWith  set contents             I have to pay tribute to fletchzone com as I took his plugin and stripped it back to the above  cheers mate

Quick Easy Fix   Use JQuery  toggle   to show hide the rows onclick of either Row or an Anchor   A function will need to be written to identify the rows you would like hidden  but toggle creates the functionality you are looking for

I ve gotten around this by using the td elements in the row     ui item  children  td   effect  highlight     color    4ca456     1000     Animating the row itself causes strange behaviour  mostly async animation problems   For the above code  I am highlighting a row that gets dragged and dropped around in the table to highlight that the update has succeeded  Hope this helps someone

I did use the ideas provided here and faced some problems  I fixed them all and have a smooth one-liner I d like to share       row to slideup   find   gt  td   css   height   0px    wrapInner   lt div style   display block      gt    parent   find  td  gt  div   slideUp  slow   function      this  parent   parent   remove         It uses css on the td element  It reduces the height to 0px  That way only the height of the content of the newly created div-wrapper inside of each td element matters   The slideUp is on slow  If you make it even slower you might realize some glitch  A small jump at the beginning  This is because of the mentioned css setting  But without those settings the row would not decrease in height  Only its content would   At the end the tr element gets removed   The whole line only contains JQuery and no native Javascript   Hope it helps   Here is an example code        lt html gt               lt head gt                       lt script src  https   code jquery com jquery-3 2 0 min js  gt                 lt  script gt               lt  head gt               lt body gt                       lt table gt                               lt thead gt                                       lt tr gt                                               lt th gt header column 1 lt  th gt                                               lt th gt header column 2 lt  th gt                                       lt  tr gt                               lt  thead gt                               lt tbody gt                                       lt tr id  row1  gt  lt td gt row 1 left lt  td gt  lt td gt row 1 right lt  td gt  lt  tr gt                                       lt tr id  row2  gt  lt td gt row 2 left lt  td gt  lt td gt row 2 right lt  td gt  lt  tr gt                                       lt tr id  row3  gt  lt td gt row 3 left lt  td gt  lt td gt row 3 right lt  td gt  lt  tr gt                                       lt tr id  row4  gt  lt td gt row 4 left lt  td gt  lt td gt row 4 right lt  td gt  lt  tr gt                               lt  tbody gt                       lt  table gt                       lt script gt      setTimeout function             row2   find   gt  td   css   height   0px    wrapInner   lt div style   display block      gt    parent   find  td  gt  div   slideUp  slow           function      this  parent   parent   remove              2000                        lt  script gt               lt  body gt       lt  html gt

I can be done if you set the td s in the row to display none at the same time you start animating the height on the row  tbody tr      min-height  50px    tbody tr ng-hide td      display  none    tr hide-line      -moz-transition   4s linear all      -o-transition   4s linear all      -webkit-transition   4s linear all      transition   4s linear all      height  50px      overflow  hidden        amp  ng-hide     angularJs specific         height  0          min-height  0

I ve gotten around this by using the td elements in the row     ui item  children  td   effect  highlight     color    4ca456     1000     Animating the row itself causes strange behaviour  mostly async animation problems   For the above code  I am highlighting a row that gets dragged and dropped around in the table to highlight that the update has succeeded  Hope this helps someone

I simply wrap the tr dynamically then remove it once the slideUp slideDown has complete  It s a pretty small overhead adding and removing one or a couple of  tags and then removing them once the animation is complete  I don t see any visible lag at all doing it   SlideUp       my table  gt  tbody  gt  tr my row     find  td     wrapInner   lt div style  display  block     gt      parent     find  td  gt  div     slideUp 700  function         this  parent   parent   remove            SlideDown       my table  gt  tbody  gt  tr my row     find  td     wrapInner   lt div style  display  none     gt      parent     find  td  gt  div     slideDown 700  function       var  set     this      set replaceWith  set contents             I have to pay tribute to fletchzone com as I took his plugin and stripped it back to the above  cheers mate

I can be done if you set the td s in the row to display none at the same time you start animating the height on the row  tbody tr      min-height  50px    tbody tr ng-hide td      display  none    tr hide-line      -moz-transition   4s linear all      -o-transition   4s linear all      -webkit-transition   4s linear all      transition   4s linear all      height  50px      overflow  hidden        amp  ng-hide     angularJs specific         height  0          min-height  0

with some extra steps to get rid of the cell padding   It also returns the object you called it on  so you can chain methods like so       row id   slideRow  down   css   font-color    F00       make the text in the row red   Hope this helps someone

I liked the plugin that Vinny s written and have been using  But in case of tables inside sliding row  tr td   the rows of nested table are always hidden even after slid up  So I did a quick and simple hack in the plugin not to hide the rows of nested table  Just change the following line  var  cells     this  find  td      to  var  cells     this  find   gt  td      which finds only immediate tds not nested ones  Hope this helps someone using the plugin and have nested tables

Animations are not supported on table rows   From  Learning jQuery  by Chaffer and Swedberg       Table rows present particular   obstacles to animation  since browsers   use different values  table-row and   block  for their visible display   property   The  hide   and  show     methods  without animation  are always   safe to use with table rows   As of   jQuery version 1 1 3   fadeIn   and    fadeOut   can be used as well      You can wrap your td contents in a div and use the slideDown on that  You need to decide if the animation is worth the extra markup

You could try wrapping the contents of the row in a  lt span gt  and having your selector be     detailed edit row span    - a bit hackish  but I just tested it and it works  I also tried the table-row suggestion above and it didn t seem to work   update  I ve been playing around with this problem  and from all indications jQuery needs the object it performs slideDown on to be a block element  So  no dice  I was able to conjure up a table where I used slideDown on a cell and it didn t affect the layout at all  so I am not sure how yours is set up  I think your only solution is to refactor the table in such a way that it s ok with that cell being a block  or just  show    the damn thing  Good luck

I had problems with all the other solutions offered but ended up doing this simple thing that is smooth as butter   Set up your HTML like so    lt tr id row1 style  height 0px  gt  lt td gt     lt div id div1 style  display none  gt      Hidden row content goes here    lt  div gt   lt  td gt  lt  tr gt    Then set up your javascript like so   function toggleRow rowid     var row   document getElementById  row    rowid     if row style height     0px              div    rowid  slideDown  fast          row style height    1px         else            div    rowid  slideUp  fast          row style height    0px               Basically  make the  invisible  row 0px high  with a div inside  Use the animation on the div  not the row  and then set the row height to 1px   To hide the row again  use the opposite animation on the div and set the row height back to 0px

I did use the ideas provided here and faced some problems  I fixed them all and have a smooth one-liner I d like to share       row to slideup   find   gt  td   css   height   0px    wrapInner   lt div style   display block      gt    parent   find  td  gt  div   slideUp  slow   function      this  parent   parent   remove         It uses css on the td element  It reduces the height to 0px  That way only the height of the content of the newly created div-wrapper inside of each td element matters   The slideUp is on slow  If you make it even slower you might realize some glitch  A small jump at the beginning  This is because of the mentioned css setting  But without those settings the row would not decrease in height  Only its content would   At the end the tr element gets removed   The whole line only contains JQuery and no native Javascript   Hope it helps   Here is an example code        lt html gt               lt head gt                       lt script src  https   code jquery com jquery-3 2 0 min js  gt                 lt  script gt               lt  head gt               lt body gt                       lt table gt                               lt thead gt                                       lt tr gt                                               lt th gt header column 1 lt  th gt                                               lt th gt header column 2 lt  th gt                                       lt  tr gt                               lt  thead gt                               lt tbody gt                                       lt tr id  row1  gt  lt td gt row 1 left lt  td gt  lt td gt row 1 right lt  td gt  lt  tr gt                                       lt tr id  row2  gt  lt td gt row 2 left lt  td gt  lt td gt row 2 right lt  td gt  lt  tr gt                                       lt tr id  row3  gt  lt td gt row 3 left lt  td gt  lt td gt row 3 right lt  td gt  lt  tr gt                                       lt tr id  row4  gt  lt td gt row 4 left lt  td gt  lt td gt row 4 right lt  td gt  lt  tr gt                               lt  tbody gt                       lt  table gt                       lt script gt      setTimeout function             row2   find   gt  td   css   height   0px    wrapInner   lt div style   display block      gt    parent   find  td  gt  div   slideUp  slow           function      this  parent   parent   remove              2000                        lt  script gt               lt  body gt       lt  html gt
