HTMLTableElement: createTBody() method

Baseline Widely available

This feature is well established and works across many devices and browser versions. It’s been available across browsers since July 2015.

The createTBody() method of HTMLTableElement objects creates and returns a new <tbody> element associated with a given <table>.

Note: Unlike HTMLTableElement.createTHead() and HTMLTableElement.createTFoot(), createTBody() systematically creates a new <tbody> element, even if the table already contains one or more bodies. If so, the new one is inserted after the existing ones.

Syntax

js
createTBody()

Parameters

None.

Return value

Examples

js
let myBody = myTable.createTBody();
// Now this should be true: myBody === myTable.tBodies.item(myTable.tBodies.length - 1)
