I am trying to build a multiplication table and display the results, but need to put the x in the top left corner, for some reason it is showing up on the bottom right, what am I doing wrong?
document.write("<table><tbody>"); var blank = "x"; var cols = 0; var rows = 0; // ca for (let rows = 0; rows <= 10; rows++) { document.write('<tr>'); for (let cols = 0; cols <= 10; cols++) document.write('<td>' + rows + ',' + cols + '</td>') } if (rows === 0 && cols === 0) { document.write('<td>' + blank + '</td>') }

“What am I doing wrong?” A lot.
You should think about what you are trying to do first, before going at it.
Your html table is ill-formed, you don’t even close the <tr>
tags.
for (let row = 0; row <= 10; row++) { document.write('<tr>'); for (let col = 0; col <= 10; col++) { if (row == 0 && col == 0) { document.write('<td>x</td>'); } else if (row == 0) { document.write('<td>' + col + '</td>'); } else if (col == 0) { document.write('<td>' + row + '</td>'); } else { document.write('<td>' + row * col + '</td>'); } } document.write('</tr>'); }
