How can I update a table using jquery ajax?

I have a table below. With the ajax call, I am updating the table content. It is reflected in the database, but how can I update the table without reloading the entire page. Please help me.

My table structure:

<table class="table table-hover" id="cust-table">
    <thead>
        <tr>
            <th>LastName</th>
            <th>FirstName</th>
        </tr>
    </thead>
    <tbody>
        <?php
            for($i=0; $i<$numrows; ++$i) {
                 $contacts = mysqli_fetch_assoc($result);
            ?>
        <tr>
            <td><?php echo $contacts['LastName']; ?></td>
            <td><?php echo $contacts['FirstName']; ?></td>
        </tr>
        <?php
        } ?>
    </tbody>
</table>

      

JQuery code:

$.ajax({   
       type: 'POST',   
       url: 'update.php',   
       data: {LastName:last_name, FirstName:first_name}
     });

      

update.php updates the database, but I need to update the table without refreshing the whole page. Can someone please help me on this?

For your scenario, write the code for the html and ajax table in other pages. For example: -

In update.php

//do stuff for update
//html table code
------------------------

      



On the ajax page (test.php)

<div id='load'>

</div>

<script>
$(function(){
loadData();

// call by click event
$('#selector-name').click(function(){
     loadData();
});


function loadData(){
    $.ajax({   
     type: 'POST',   
     url: 'update.php',   
     data: {LastName:last_name, FirstName:first_name},
    success: function(msg) {
            $("#load").html(msg);
        },
    });
  }
});
</script>

It should be easy.



    //delete all rows in table
    $('#cust-table').empty();

    //add rows
    $('#cust-table > tbody:last').append('<tr> ... </tr>'); //do the magic
