How to get a running sum on HTML table?

I searching a solution for give the running sun to a editable html table, like a spreadsheet:

Hi here is a basic example of what you want using :
The HTML content editable property.
A css class to append a focusout event to the table cell.
A simple loop to sum all values when one value changes.
$('#tbodyTest >tr').on('focusout', 'td.editable', (e) => {
let target = $(e.target),
parent_row = $(e.target).closest('tr'),
previous_row = parent_row.prev();
setTimeout(() => {
if (!isNaN(target.text())) {
$('#tbodyTest').children('tr').each((i,e)=>{
$(e).find('td').last().text(Number($(e).find('td:eq(2)').text()) +Number($(e).prev().find('td').last().text()))
})
}else{
target.text("0");
parent_row.find('td').last().text("0");
$('#tbodyTest').children('tr').each((i,e)=>{
$(e).find('td').last().text(Number($(e).find('td:eq(2)').text()) +Number($(e).prev().find('td').last().text()))
})
}
})
})
.editable {
background-color: red;
}
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.3.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<table id="test" border=1>

<tbody id="tbodyTest">
<tr>
<td>01-01-2019</td>
<td>a</td>
<td class="editable" contenteditable='true'>1000</td>
<td>1000</td>

</tr>
<tr>

<td class="editable" contenteditable='true'></td>

</tr>
</tbody>

Keep in mind that this is a basic example and you will probably add more stuff according to your needs since your ask is simple as well.
Hope it helps

Anyone still looking to this.
$('tr').each(function(index, el) {
if (index == 0) {
$(this).find('.running-balance').text($(this).find('.amount').text());
} else {
var prevRow = $(this).prev();
var prevBalance = Number(prevRow.find('.running-balance').text());
var currentAmount = Number($(this).find('.amount').text());
var newBalance = prevBalance + currentAmount;
$(this).find('.running-balance').text(newBalance.toFixed(2));

Javascript show more button in table

I need to show another tbody of table on Click. I have following table which is in foreach so there will be multiple buttons.:
<table class="table" id="call-table">
<tr>
<th>Show more buttons</th>
</tr>
<tbody>
<tr>
<td class="show-more-button">Show more</td> //It will open first tbody
<tr>
<tr>
<td class="show-more-button">Show more</td> //It will open second tbody
<tr>
<tbody class="show-more"> //First tbody
<tr>
<th scope="col">Data</th>
<th scope="col">Value</th>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Some data....</td>
<td>A value..</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
<tbody class="show-more"> //Second tbody
<tr>
<th scope="col">Data</th>
<th scope="col">Value</th>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Some more data....</td>
<td>Another value..</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</tbody>
I'm using python with DjangoFramework. And that's the script i came up with. But it only works for changing the 's text but doesn't show the tbody.
<script>
$(document).on("click", ".show-more-button", function() {
if ($(this).text() == "Show more") {
$(this).text("Show less");
$(this).parent().children(".show-more").style.display = "block";
} else {
$(this).text("Show more");
$(this).parent().children(".show-more").style.display = "block";
}
});
</script>
and in CSS:
.show-more {
display: none;
}
What error do i have in my script?

Because $(this).parent() will be <tr>. For example you might use closest and find first parent table and there will be able using .children('.show-more'). See an example below.
$(document).on("click", ".show-more-button", function() {
if ($(this).text() == "Show more") {
$(this).text("Show less");
$(this).closest('table').children(".show-more").css('display', 'block');
} else {
$(this).text("Show more");
$(this).closest('table').children(".show-more").css('display', 'none');
}
});
.show-more { display: none; }
<script src="https://code.jquery.com/jquery-3.4.1.min.js"></script>
<table>
<thead>
<tr>
<th>Name</th>
<th>Lastname</th>
<th>Age</th>
</tr>
</thead>
<tr>
<td class="show-more-button">Show more</td>
<tr>
<tbody class="show-more">
<tr>
<td>John</td>
<td>Doe</td>
<td>27</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Alice</td>
<td>Lo</td>
<td>43</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Linda</td>
<td>Morrison</td>
<td>45</td>
</tr>
</tbody>

Example changed and i prepared new solution.
$(document).on("click", ".show-more-button", function() {
var forId = $(this).data('more-for');
var $showMoreElement = $(this).closest('table').children('.show-more[data-more-id="' + forId + '"]');
if ($(this).text() == "Show more") {
$(this).text("Show less");
$showMoreElement.css('display', 'block');
} else {
$(this).text("Show more");
$showMoreElement.css('display', 'none');
}
});
.show-more {
display: none;
}
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.3.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<table class="table" id="call-table">
<tr>
<th>Show more buttons</th>
</tr>
<tbody>
<tr>
<!--It will open first tbody -->
<td class="show-more-button" data-more-for="1">Show more</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<!--It will open second tbody -->
<td class="show-more-button" data-more-for="2">Show more</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
<!--First tbody -->

</tbody>

Here two ways. Choose anyone. It works well:
$(function(){
$('.show-more-button').click(function(){
var b_id = $(this).data('id');
var b_text = $(this).text() == "Show more" ? "Show less" : "Show more";
$(this).text(b_text);
$('.shm'+b_id).toggle();
});
$('.show-more-button2').click(function(){
var b_id = $(this).data('id');
var b_text = $(this).text() == "Show more" ? "Show less" : "Show more";
$(this).text(b_text);
$('.shm'+b_id+'_2').toggle();
th_sh();
});
})
function th_sh(){
var o = 0;
$('#call-table2').find('.shows').each(function(){
var u = $(this).css('display') == 'table-row' ? 1 : 0;
o = o + u;
});
o>0 ? $('.th_disp').css('display','block') : $('.th_disp').css('display','none');
}

How to find the sum of dynamically generated multiple table columns

I have table with some data in an array to be displayed as below. In this example, I display 2 table datas but it can be more than 2. I have to calculate the column population, collection 1 and collection 2 of each table and show then at the end of each table.
So far I have tried following code to calculate where I first calcuate the number of tables available by counting array.
<script type="text/javascript">
var count = <?php echo json_encode(count($lists)); ?>;
var total = 0;
for(var i = 1; i <= count; i++)
{
var available = $(".used-community .plant_counter_"+i);
$.each(available, function(key, value)
{
total+=parseInt(available[key].innerText);
});
console.log(total);//edit variable name - totala changed to total
}
</script>
<table class="table" border="1">
<thead>
<tr class="titlerow">
<th>Name</th>
<th>Address</th>
<th>Population</th>
<th>Collection 1</th>
<th>collection 2</th>

My code is calculating the row with class "plant_counter_1" correctly but for next table it continue adding the sum of table 1 as well. Can anybody teach me where I did mistake and I how can I find out the sum of other two columns
Thank You

Loop over each table and work within that table instance. The total data count is not really needed since it doesn't break down the number of tables.
Since you can easily isolate table instances I would suggest you use common class names across all tables and don't use incremental ones
$('table').each(function(){
var $table =$(this),
$rows = $table.find('tbody tr'),
$lastRowCells = $rows.last().children(),
collectionTotals = $rows.not(':last').map(function(){
var $cells = $(this).children()
return [[+$cells[3].textContent, +$cells[4].textContent]]
}).get()
.reduce(function(a,c){
$.each(c,function(i, val){
a[i] += val;
});
return a;
},[0,0]);
$lastRowCells.eq(3).text(collectionTotals[0]);
$lastRowCells.eq(4).text(collectionTotals[1]);
})

Just a small modification to your code and it will work. Since you need multiple results, your total needs to be an array. Please run attached code snippet for clarity.
var count =2;//change back to your php <?php echo json_encode(count($lists)); ?>;
var total = new Array();
total.push(0);
for(var i = 1; i <= count; i++)
{
total.push(0);
var available = $(".used-community .plant_counter_"+i);
$.each(available, function(key, value)
{
total[i]+=parseInt(available[key].innerText);
});
total.push(0);
console.log(total[i]);
}

var totalElement = rows.splice(-1);

Well if I understand you correctly. You can store the total sum of each table into array. I think the code explain alone... But I declare an array named
'total' outside of the for statement that contain the total of each table. When the foreach finish to sum all the values in tempTotal, then do a push to total array and save the operation of the first loop. and the second... third... etc
var total = [];
for(var i = 1; i <= 2; i++)
{
var tempTotal = 0;
var available = $(".used-community .plant_counter_"+i);
$.each(available, function(key, value)
{
tempTotal = tempTotal + parseInt(available[key].innerText);
});
total.push(tempTotal);
}
console.log(total);

move a column ,including th, between tables in jQueryUI sortable

Fiddle Example
I have two example tables with subject titles in the first cells.
<table class='sort connect'>
<thead>
<tr>
<th class='ui-state-disabled'></th>
<th>Person 1</th>
<th>Person 2</th>
</tr>
</thead>
<tbody>
<tr>
<td class='ui-state-disabled'>Age</td>
<td>18</td>
<td>23</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class='ui-state-disabled'>Job</td>
<td>Clerk</td>
<td>Policeman</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
<table class='sort connect'>
<thead>
<tr>
<th class='ui-state-disabled'></th>
<th>Person 3</th>
<th>Person 4</th>
</tr>
</thead>
<tbody>
<tr>
<td class='ui-state-disabled'>Age</td>
<td>17</td>
<td>46</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class='ui-state-disabled'>Job</td>
<td>Student</td>
<td>Firefighter</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
I've made the first child of th and td unsortable since they are titles. Is there any way to move other columns, one at a time (td:nth-child,th:nth-child), to the other table using jQueryUI sortable?
How can I make a whole column sortable in the change or start event?
Here's my expected output:
<table class='sort connect'>
<thead>
<tr>
<th class='ui-state-disabled'></th>
<th>Person 1</th>
</tr>
</thead>
<tbody>
<tr>
<td class='ui-state-disabled'>Age</td>
<td>18</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class='ui-state-disabled'>Job</td>
<td>Clerk</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
<table class='sort connect'>
<thead>
<tr>
<th class='ui-state-disabled'></th>
<th>Person 3</th>
<th>Person 2</th> // sorted
<th>Person 4</th>
</tr>
</thead>
<tbody>
<tr>
<td class='ui-state-disabled'>Age</td>
<td>17</td>
<td>23</td> //sorted
<td>46</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class='ui-state-disabled'>Job</td>
<td>Student</td>
<td>Policeman</td> //sorted
<td>Firefighter</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
JS code:
var fixHelperModified = function(e, tr) {
var $originals = tr.children();
var $helper = tr.clone();
$helper.children().each(function(index)
{
$(this).width($originals.eq(index).width())
});
return $helper;
};
$(function() {
$( ".sort" ).sortable({
change: function( event, ui ) {
var see = ui.item.index();
console.log(see);
$(this).find('td:nth-child(see),th:nth-child(see)')
},
helper: fixHelperModified,
cancel: ".ui-state-disabled",
connectWith: ".connect"
}).disableSelection();
});

What about something like this?
It's a workaround for what you're asking, but it does basically the same thing, just fix the styling, spaces, etc. as you'd like
