I need your help,
For some reason, I can't get the data captured in my array to populate into the TD cells of my dynamically generated table:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript">
function addTable() {
var myTableDiv = document.getElementById("metric_results")
var table = document.createElement('TABLE')
var tableBody = document.createElement('TBODY')
table.border = '1'
table.appendChild(tableBody);
var heading = new Array();
heading[0] = "Request Type"
heading[1] = "Group A"
heading[2] = "Groub B"
heading[3] = "Group C"
heading[4] = "Total"
var stock = new Array()
stock[0] = new Array("Cars", "88.625", "85.50", "85.81", "987")
stock[1] = new Array("Veggies", "88.625", "85.50", "85.81", "988")
stock[2] = new Array("Colors", "88.625", "85.50", "85.81", "989")
stock[3] = new Array("Numbers", "88.625", "85.50", "85.81", "990")
stock[4] = new Array("Requests", "88.625", "85.50", "85.81", "991")
//TABLE COLUMNS
var tr = document.createElement('TR');
tableBody.appendChild(tr);
for (i = 0; i < heading.length; i++) {
var th = document.createElement('TH')
th.width = '75';
th.appendChild(document.createTextNode(heading[i]));
tr.appendChild(th);
}
//TABLE ROWS
var tr = document.createElement('TR');
tableBody.appendChild(tr);
for (i = 0; i < stock.length; i++) {
for (j = 0; j < stock[i].length; j++) {
var td = document.createElement('TD')
td.appendChild(document.createTextNode(stock[i][j]));
td.appendChild(td)
}
}
myTableDiv.appendChild(table)
}
</script>
</head>
<div id="metric_results">
<input type="button" id="create" value="Click here" onclick="Javascript:addTable()">
</div>
</body>
</html>

Change:
var tr = document.createElement('TR'); // this should be inside the first loop
tableBody.appendChild(tr); // this should be just before the first loop is over
for (i=0; i<stock.length; i++) {
for (j=0; j<stock[i].length; j++) {
var td = document.createElement('TD')
td.appendChild(document.createTextNode(stock[i][j]));
td.appendChild(td) // this should be tr.appendChild(td)
}
}
to this:
for (i = 0; i < stock.length; i++) {
var tr = document.createElement('TR');
for (j = 0; j < stock[i].length; j++) {
var td = document.createElement('TD')
td.appendChild(document.createTextNode(stock[i][j]));
tr.appendChild(td)
}
tableBody.appendChild(tr);
}
