<% if(entityName[i].entityType === "clientUpload"){ %>
<div class="tab-pane attr-detail-<%= entityName[i].displayName%> fade <% if (i === 0) { %>in active<% } %>" id="<%=entityName[i].displayName%>">
<table class="table">

Here i just want to add a row to the table. But this time the default values will be there in the row and user will edit it.
How can i add a row using jquery
without writing the all <td>
s in the <tr>
in the append method?? Is there any simple way to just copy a row and use default value and add after the last row in the table??
I have used canJs. It's very much easy using canJs. At first i seperated out the row part in another ejs and then store it in a variable by below code:
var rowItem = can.view.render("templates/attr-tab-row.ejs",{});
And then added with the table body.
var table_body = $(el).closest('div').find('tbody');
table_body.append(rowItem);
