jQuery datepicker on dynamically generated rows

Question

I am dynamically generating table rows using the following javascript codes:

$('#addNew').on('click', function() {
    var clone = $('table.table-responsive tr.cloneme:first').clone();
    console.log(clone);
    clone.append("<td><button class='deleteAdded btn btn-danger'>Remove</button></td>")
    $('table.table-responsive').append(clone);
    calculateSum();
});

And this is my script for appending jQuery calendar to date inputs

$(function() {
    $('input').filter('.datepicker').datepicker({
        dateFormat: 'yy-mm-dd',
        changeMonth: true,
        changeYear: true,
    });
});

Now the problem I am facing is that the jQuery calendar pops up only in the first row. It doesn't work on the rows that are generated.

This in my html

<td>
    <input type="text" class="form-control datepicker" name="invoiceDate[]" readonly="readonly" />
</td>

Please tell me how to make jQuery calendar work on all the rows that are dynamically generated. Looked around Google but nothing helped.

Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

You have to initiate the datepicker after the new rows are created

jQuery(function($) {
  //create a original copy of the row to clone later
  var $tr = $('table.table-responsive tr.cloneme:first').clone();

  //add dp to existing rows
  addDP($('input.datepicker'));

  $('#addNew').on('click', function() {
    var clone = $tr.clone();
    console.log(clone);
    clone.append("<td><button class='deleteAdded btn btn-danger'>Remove</button></td>");
    //add dp to the new row
    addDP(clone.find('input.datepicker'));
    $('table.table-responsive').append(clone);
    calculateSum();
  });

  function addDP($els) {
    $els.datepicker({
      dateFormat: 'yy-mm-dd',
      changeMonth: true,
      changeYear: true,
    });
  }
});
