Question

and if so what is the code to reach into an external html?

Answer 1

Can you please explain your question better?
If what you want is to put a table into a variable, you can simply assign it to getElementById, every element can be assigned to a variable.

Answer 2

If you want to change what is in a specific cell, you can use:
var cell35 = document.getElementById("board").rows[5].cells[3];

Then, if you want to put an image in the cell:
var cell = document.getElementById("board").rows[5].cells[3];
var img = document.createElement("img");
img.src = "image.png";
cell.appendChild(img);

Note that 3 and 5 are example numbers, that are 5 on the y and 3 on the x.
If all of this is a little vomplicated for you then I suggest you use a tutorial on a basic checkers game.

Answer 3

I made a checker board using a table and uni code. I want now to start programing the javascript in an external ".js" page while using the DOME.

-The table has an id "board".
And i started off by coding :
var t = document.getElementById("board").innerHTML;
but gives me an error.
How can i code it?

Answer 4

The error that it gives me is:
'document' is not defined.[no-undef]
