  1. <!DOCTYPE html>
  2. <html

    lang

    =

    "en"

    >
  3. <head

    >
  4. <meta

    charset

    =

    "UTF-8"

    name

    =

    "viewport"

    content

    =

    "width=device-width, initial-scale=1"

    /

    >
  5. <link

    rel

    =

    "stylesheet"

    type

    =

    "text/css"

    href

    =

    "css/bootstrap.css"

    /

    >
  6. </

    head

    >
  7. <body

    >
  8. <nav

    class

    =

    "navbar navbar-default"

    >
  9. <div

    class

    class

    =

    "navbar-brand"

    href

    =

    >

    Sourcecodester</

    a

    >
  11. </

    div

    >
  12. </

    nav

    >
  13. <div

    class

    =

    "col-md-3"

    ></

    div

    >
  14. <div

    class

    =

    "col-md-6 well"

    >

    h3

    >
  16. <hr

    style

    =

    "border-top:1px dotted #ccc;"

    /

    >
  17. <table

    class

    =

    "table table-bordered"

    >
  18. <thead

    class

    =

    "alert-info"

    >
  19. <tr

    >
  20. <th

    >

    Array</

    th

    >
  21. <th

    ></

    th

    >
  22. </

    tr

    >
  23. </

    thead

    >
  24. <tbody

    id

    =

    "result"

    ></

    tbody

    >
  25. </

    table

    >
  26. </

    div

    >
  27. </

    body

    >
  28. <script

    src

    =

    "script.js"

    ></

    script

    >
  29. </

    html

    >

Creating JavaScript Function

This is where the main function of the application is. This code will dynamically remove an array when the button is clicked. To do this just copy and write these block of codes inside the text editor and save it as script.js.
  1. let array =

    [

    "Chris Pratt"

    ,

    "John Smith"

    ,

    "Neil Armstrong"

    ,

    "Stephen Hawkins"

    ,

    "Steve Jobs"

    ,

    "Michael Douglas"

    ]

    ;

  2. arrayList(

    )

    ;

  3. function

    removeArray(

    index)

    {
  4. alert(

    array[

    index]

    +

    " have been removed"

    )

    ;
  5. array.splice

    (

    index,

    1

    )

    ;
  6. arrayList(

    )

    ;
  7. }

  8. function

    arrayList(

    )

    {
  9. let table =

    ""

    ;

  10. for

    (

    var

    i=

    0

    ;

    i <

    array.length

    ;

    i++

    )

    {
  11. table +=

    "<tr>"

    ;
  12. table +=

    "<td>"

    +

    array[

    i]

    +

    "</td>"
  13. +

    "<td><button class='btn btn-danger' onclick='removeArray("

    +

    i+

    ")'>Remove</button></td>"

    ;
  14. table +=

    "</tr>"

    ;

  15. }

  16. document.getElementById

    (

    "result"

    )

    .innerHTML

    =

    table;
  17. }

In the code above we create a method that will display the list of array in html table called arrayList(). This function is consist of appending of array of data to html table using the innerHTMLfunction. We will now create a method that will remove our array from the list called removeArray(). This function use splice function to remove the array from a list based on the index positon.
