In this example, when change content is pressed, new content is written in the cell on the top left. Would it be possible to alter it to the top right? If so, how?

Answer 1

Change the function changeContent() to look something like this:

function changeContent() {
    var x=document.getElementById('myTable').rows[0].cells;
    x[1].innerHTML="NEW CONTENT";
}

Essentially you are changing the x[0].innerHTML (first cell it encounters) to x[1].innerHTML (second cell it encounters).
