denno020 Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 Not sure if it's just typo when wriging it here, but your html should look like this: <body> <div id = "table"> </div> </body> Notice the quotes around the id and the ending '>' after the closing div and closing body tags That's something I noticed right away so maybe that's causing drama's.
