Dynamically add or delete rows to table using Javascript

In this article i am going to show you How to dynamically add or remove(delete) rows from table using Javascript

Consider you have following html

<html>
 <body>
   <div id="table-container">
       <table id="my-table">
       </table>
   </div>
 </body>
</html>

We already have a table with id = "my-table"

Now, let's see how to add rows dynamically using Javascript


first let's create rows

  var row1 = table.insertRow(0);

Above command creates an empty <tr> element and adds it to the first position of the table

  var row2 = table.insertRow(1); 

Above command creates an empty <tr> element and adds it to the second position of the table

Now, let's create row cells

 var cell1 = row1.insertCell(0);
 cell1.innerHTML = "Name";

Above command creates an empty cell and adds it to first row of the table

 var cell2 = document.createElement("td");
 cell2.innerHTML = "Age";

Above command creates an empty cell and adds it to first row of the table.

Now we have a table with two rows and first row having two cells.


Remove rows dynamically using Javascript


  document.getElementById("my-table").deleteRow(0);

Above command deletes first row from the table having id = "my-table"

In this way we can dynamically add or delete rows from table dynamically JavaScript
