title: Generate HTML table and load it in div element
body: <p>I'd like to load a HTML table into a div-element (id="resultDataDistancesTable") - but the generated string isn't processed (no matter if I use html(), append() or innerHTML). There is no error in the console.</p>
  
  <p>When I paste the console.log(..) output directly to the HTML page I get the table that I want - so why doesn't my JavaScript code work? Is something wrong with the string?</p>
