HTMLTableElement: rows property

Baseline Widely available

This feature is well established and works across many devices and browser versions. It’s been available across browsers since July 2015.

The read-only HTMLTableElement property rows returns a live HTMLCollection of all the rows in the table, including the rows contained within any <thead>, <tfoot>, and <tbody> elements.

Although the property itself is read-only, the returned object is live and allows the modification of its content.

Value

An HTMLCollection providing a live-updating list of the HTMLTableRowElement objects representing all of the <tr> elements contained in the table. This provides quick access to all of the table rows, without having to manually search for them.

Examples

js
myRows = myTable.rows; firstRow = myTable.rows[0]; lastRow = myTable.rows.item(myTable.rows.length - 1);

This demonstrates how you can use both indexed access and the HTMLCollection.item() method to obtain individual rows in the table.
