Javascript is adding <tr>s to my table elements automatically

Question

As you can see from this screenshot:

each element is being put into its own tr.

I do not want that, I just want each element to be in a td then surround everything with one tr

HTML:

<div id='result'>
    <table class='table'>
        <thead>
            <tr><th>Question</th><th>Animal</th><th>Expected</th><th>You Picked</th><th>Result</th></tr>
        </thead>
        <tbody id='result-table'>
        </tbody>
    </table>
</div>

Javascript:

function displayResult() {
    let tableDisplay = document.getElementById("result-table")
    let theResult = document.getElementById("result")
    theResult.style.display = "block"

    for(let i = 0; i<qArr.length; i++){
        tableDisplay.innerHTML = tableDisplay.innerHTML + `<td>` + qArr[i] + `</td>`
    }
    // qArr.forEach(x => {
    //     tableDisplay.innerHTML = tableDisplay.innerHTML + `<td>` + x + `</td>`
    // })

}

Answer 1

td can't be children for tbody, only for tr. Because browser independently add this element. You need data to result-row.

<tbody id='result-table'>
    <tr id='result-row'></tr>
</tbody>

By the way, interaction with the DOM is an expensive operation. First it’s better to form an array and then insert once.
