Hey, haven't been to this board before. Anyway, getting into Javascipt... And I'm trying to populate a table with the numbers 1-10, their squares, and cubes. Can someone please help me out?
What I have so far:<script type="text/javascript">
<!--
var number = 0;
var square;
var cube;
for (var i = 0; i <= 10; i++, number++)
{
square = number * number;
cube = number * number * number;
var table_ref = document.getElementById('num_table');
var new_row = table_ref.insertRow(-1);
var new_cell = new_row.insertCell(-1);
var cell_contents = new_cell.innerHTML = number;
new_cell = new_row.insertCell(-1);
cell_contents = new_cell.innerHTML = square;
new_cell = new_row.insertCell(-1);
cell_content = new_cell.innerHTML = cube;
}
// -->
</script>
With this in <body>:<table id="num_table" border="5" width="50%"
summary="Numbers, Their Squares & Cubes">
<thead>
<tr>
<th>Number</th>
<th>Square</th>
<th>Cube</th>
</tr>
</thead>
<tbody>
</tbody>
</table>
Tried writing the script a few different ways with no luck. Didn't really want to use variables to insert rows/cells but most of the examples I've seen do it, so eh... Thanks in advance!
