The read-only HTMLTableElement
property rows
returns a live HTMLCollection
of all the rows in the table, including the rows contained within any <thead>
, <tfoot>
, and <tbody>
elements.
Although the property itself is read-only, the returned object is live and allows the modification of its content.
An HTMLCollection
providing a live-updating list of the HTMLTableRowElement
objects representing all of the <tr>
elements contained in the table. This provides quick access to all of the table rows, without having to manually search for them.
myrows = mytable.rows;
firstRow = mytable.rows[0];
lastRow = mytable.rows.item(mytable.rows.length-1);
This demonstrates how you can use both array syntax (line 2) and the HTMLCollection.item()
method (line 3) to obtain individual rows in the table.
