Question

In my jQuery I have a myTable string:

var myTable = "<table width='100%'><tr>";

After adding some data in <td>s to myTable like

myTable += <td>...</td><td>...</td>

then closing the table like:

myTable += "</tr><table>"

the myTable string is now:

"<table width='100%'><tr><td>...</td><td>...</td></tr><table>"

Is it possible to remove the last (and only the last) "</tr><table>" from the table. The <td>s can contain nested <table>s.

So at the end myTable should be something like <table width='100%'><tr><td>...</td><td>...</td>".

i don’t know what’s for do you need this, but according to your code you could do it like this:

if (myTable.substr(0, (myTable.length-12)) === '</tr></table>') {
  myTable = myTable.substr(0, (myTable.length-12));
}
