Click on a cell, get value from other columns

mborn

I have a column that I am capturing the value of when I click (column 1 as shown below):

            $('#mainTable').on('click', 'tbody td', function () {
                var index = mainTable.column(this).index();

                if (index == 1) {
                    $('#whichTable').val('market');
                    var cellValue = $(this).text();           
                }

            });

How do I get the value of column zero from the same row?

Found a solution:

                    var rowindex = mainTable.row(this).index();
                    var ownertype = mainTable.cell(rowindex, 0).data();

                    $('#drilldown2').val('Company');
                    if (ownertype == '<u>Franchise</u>') {
                        $('#drilldown2').val('Franchise');
                    }
