The HTMLTableElement.createTFoot() method returns the <tfoot> element associated with a given <table>. If no footer exists in the table, this methods creates it, and then returns it.
Note: If no footer exists, createTFoot() inserts a new footer directly into the table. The footer does not need to be added separately as would be the case if Document.createElement() had been used to create the new <tfoot> element.
Syntax
HTMLTableSectionElement = table.createTFoot();
Return value
Example
let myfoot = mytable.createTFoot(); // Now this should be true: myfoot == mytable.tFoot
