In Firefox it works, in my Internet Explorer 6 or 7 it doesn't:
<html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript">
function newLine() {
var tdmod = document.createElement('td');
tdmod.appendChild(document.createTextNode("dynamic"));
var tr = document.createElement('tr');
tr.appendChild(tdmod);
var tt = document.getElementById("t1");
tt.appendChild(tr);
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<a href="#" onclick="newLine()">newLine</a>
<table id="t1" border="1">
<tr>
<td>
static
</td>
</tr>
</table>
</body>
The user clicks on the link "newLine" and new rows should be added to the table.
How to make this work also in IE?
Edit: Thanks to the accepted answer I changed it like this and now it works:
<table border="1">
<tbody id="t1">
<tr>
<td>
static
</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
