createDocumentFragment() used in a for loop

Question

Is createDocumentFragment() doing anything in the code below?

I\'m trying to adapt this code. I\'m not sure how it works and the for loo

Answer 1

It looks to me like the fragment is being used as a way to store the original dom of results_table. The for loop then makes changes to the results_table. Once that is done, the fragment (containing the original table) is appended to the end of results_table.

It's basically putting the new search results at the top of the table and moving the the old results to the bottom, so both the fragment and the for loop do something.
