But has anyone found a way of creating a table for insertion in an
Iframe. A much bigger task I realise but I'm not keen on users copying
tables from Word and inserting them into the iframe.
How about this approach:
<script type="text/javascript">
function buildiframetable() {
var f = document.forms['form1'];
var tdpad = +f.tdpad.value;
var tdspace = +f.tdspace.value;
var tborder = +f.tborder.value;
var rows = +f.rows.value;
var cols = +f.cols.value;
var d = document.getElementById('iframe1').contentWindow.d ocument;
var table = d.createElement('table');
table.border = tborder;
table.cellPadding = tdpad;
table.cellSpacing = tdspace;
var tbody = d.createElement('tbody');
for (var i=0; i<rows; i++) {
var row = d.createElement('tr');
for (var j=0; j<cols; j++) {
var cell = d.createElement('td');
cell.appendChild(d.createTextNode(i + ', ' + j));
row.appendChild(cell);
}
tbody.appendChild(row);
}
table.appendChild(tbody);
d.body.appendChild(table)
}
</script>
