Table rows and cells

[Zero-x252]

Ok so I want this to work like so:
If say in another document a user has certain items checked and others not and it is saved in a cookie and the cookie is broken down i want to know how to remove the ones that arent checked and add extras when they werent there to begin etc... like so
var table_array= document.all.myTable.rows[0]
how would i number one write the loop and number two add the cells

It is probably easier to display the complete table, including the extras.
Then loop through the table and hide the rows that are not required.

var ExcludeFromTable[]; // contains boolean list of rows to be removed
Tobj=document.getElementById('tableID');
// check that table has enough rows
if(Tobj.rows.length<=ExcludeFromTable.length) {
// first table row is 0;
for(var i=0; i< ExcludeFromTable.length; i++) {
if(ExcludeFromTable[i]) {
Tobj.rows[i].style.display="none";
}
}
}
else {
alert("Can't remove so many rows");
}
// note: if your table has a thead then Tobj=document.getElementById('tableID').tHead;
