Hello,

I need to append table-rows to an existing table using javascript. I would be responding to an Ajax call or clientside sort. If I have a snippet of HTML like:

<tr><td>data1</td><td>data2</tr>

Can I somehow append this to the table object?

All right... no magic beyond this, but I had to look at a place where I had done this before
Opps, that code only resorts existing table rows.

But it gave me the right search terms for google, so here you go

Indeed no magic there. Just do some document.createElement( nodeName ) ( where nodeName is td, tr, ... ) and append the resulting nodes where you want/need to. And avoid using innerHTML directly for it can lead to script injection and the like. Prefer using document.createTextNode( 'plainText' )

If you need to catch up on DOM and JavaScript, check Peter-Paul Koch's Quirksmode site or Slime's Enhancing web pages with JavaScript article
