I'm using Bootstrap and the following doesn't work:

<tbody>
    <a href="#">
        <tr>
            <td>Blah Blah</td>
            <td>1234567</td>
            <td>£158,000</td>
        </tr>
    </a>
</tbody>

Author's note I:

Please look at other answers below, especially ones that do not use jquery.

Author's note II:

Preserved for posterity but surely the wrong approach in 2020. (Was non idiomatic even back in 2017)

Original Answer

You are using Bootstrap which means you are using jQuery :^), so one way to do it is:

<tbody>
    <tr class='clickable-row' data-href='url://'>
        <td>Blah Blah</td> <td>1234567</td> <td>£158,000</td>
    </tr>
</tbody>


jQuery(document).ready(function($) {
    $(".clickable-row").click(function() {
        window.location = $(this).data("href");
    });
});

Of course you don't have to use href or switch locations, you can do whatever you like in the click handler function. Read up on jQuery and how to write handlers;

Advantage of using a class over id is that you can apply the solution to multiple rows:

<tbody>
    <tr class='clickable-row' data-href='url://link-for-first-row/'>
        <td>Blah Blah</td> <td>1234567</td> <td>£158,000</td>
    </tr>
    <tr class='clickable-row' data-href='url://some-other-link/'>
        <td>More money</td> <td>1234567</td> <td>£800,000</td>
    </tr>
</tbody>

and your code base doesn't change. The same handler would take care of all the rows.

Another option

You can use Bootstrap jQuery callbacks like this (in a document.ready callback):

$("#container").on('click-row.bs.table', function (e, row, $element) {
    window.location = $element.data('href');
});

This has the advantage of not being reset upon table sorting (which happens with the other option).

Note

Since this was posted window.document.location is obsolete (or deprecated at the very least) use window.location instead.
