In this code, I would like to edit the function to get not only the value of the item clicked, I would also like to get information from the thead section for the corresponding column. For example when I click on tBody-1B I would like it to get the value of tHead-1B or if I click on tBody-3C I would like to to also get the value of tHead-1C.
