HTMLTableElement: createTFoot() method

{{APIRef("HTML DOM")}}

The createTFoot() method of {{domxref("HTMLTableElement")}} objects returns the {{HTMLElement("tfoot")}} element associated with a given {{HtmlElement("table")}}. If no footer exists in the table, this method creates it, and then returns it.

[!NOTE] If no footer exists, createTFoot() inserts a new footer directly into the table. The footer does not need to be added separately as would be the case if {{domxref("Document.createElement()")}} had been used to create the new <tfoot> element.

Syntax

createTFoot()

Parameters

None.

Return value

{{domxref("HTMLTableSectionElement")}}

Examples

let myFoot = myTable.createTFoot();
// Now this should be true: myFoot === myTable.tFoot
