HTML Table in Markdown Cell with JavaScript jquery

JavaScript is a programming language that works with HTML data, CSS helps to style that data. In this example, we are using JavaScript and CSS that was developed by others (3rd party). Addithing the 3rd party code makes the table interactive.

  • Look at the href and src on lines inside of the lines in <head> tags. This is adding code to our page from others.
  • Observe the <script> tags at the bottom of the page. This is generating the interactive table, from the third party code, using the data <table id="demo"> from the <body>.

A table that uses JavaScript is more interactive. You can click on columns to sort the data, type to find specific information quickly, and the table updates instantly without needing to refresh the whole page. It also helps you check data before saving it and can even create cool charts to visualize information. It’s much more engaging and user-friendly compared to a basic table.
