If you're building parts of your web page in JS, why not just use DOM and it's functions straight away?

var element = document.createElement("TABLE");
var tableRow = document.createElement("TR");

etc.

This has the added benefit of being able to use DOM to make changes or add things, and you can loop the whole thing to dynamically create your tables if you'd ever need to.

With jquery, it should be relatively easy to add stuff as well, as you get functions like AppendNode, append, prepend, etc.

Besides:

Please reconsider using a <span> tag for things other than text, that's not what it is meant for.

First, javascript properties are case sensitive. Use innerHTML to change html.

Second, I believe that you are using asp web forms, but you should use html tags in javascript or render your html as text before putting it in js.
