Can you suggest an approach to combat special characters such as '<' and '&' that may exist in a book title? If these characters are not handled properly, they may ruin the display.

@cjyuan, Okay, will use "textContent" instead.

You could also write a function to escape the special characters in the string. (Just ask AI. The function is just a few lines of code).

Then you would be able to express something like:

      `...
      <td>${escape(book.title)}</td>
      <td>${escape(book.author)}</td>
      ...
      `

This way, you can keep using your approach to construct the elements.

<td>${book.pages}</td>
<td>
<button
class="btn btn-sm ${book.read ? "btn-success" : "btn-secondary"}"
data-index="${index}"
data-action="toggle"
>
${book.read ? "Yes" : "No"}
</button>
</td>
<td>
<button
class="btn btn-sm btn-danger"
data-index="${index}"
data-action="delete"
>
Delete
</button>
</td>
