Update web table dynamically using javascript

Question

I had a requirement, I will be getting the data at run-time from xml and this data needs to get updated in a table on html page.

Conditions:

1. If there is not table available on the page then create a table and update

2. If there is a table in the page update the new data to the table

Answer 1

You can do it using AJAX by calling your JavaScript function after a specific period of time, create a table first when you get your first data and after that, you can just append rows to that table.
