i am sending XML...

var xml ==<< feedind xml data in every 10 secs interval upto for 50
secs.

// get the XML and parse it.

put the data into the table. so we'll shave 5 tables this way after 50
secs.

you have shouwn how to duplicate the table. but i also want to know how
to set the data .

i need it for dynamic page updation.

you have shouwn how to duplicate the table. but i also want to know how

to set the data .

Much trickier then

// Use XMLHTTPRequest, i will call the object http
// and the elements within that signify tr groups <row>
xml = http.returnedXML;
rows = xml.getElementsByTagName('row');
form = document.forms[0];
table = document.createElement('table);
form.appendChild(table);
for (i=0;i<rows.length;i++) {
tr = document.createElement('tr');
table.appendChild(tr);
cells = row.childNodes;
for (j=0;j<cells.length;j++) {
td = document.createElement('td');
tr.appendChild(td);
txt = document.createTextNode(cells.firstChild.nodeValue);
td.appendChild(txt);
}
}

You will have to clean this up a bit to work with your data structures,
of course. Hope it helps.
