I've been searching everywhere and couldn't find how to draw a Grid / Table on a HTML5 Canvas. I'm new to HTML5 and canvas.
I know how to draw shapes but this drawing grid is taking forever to understand.
Can someone help me on this? Your time is greatly appreciated.

<script type="text/javascript" language="javascript">
// Box width
var bw = 400;
// Box height
var bh = 400;
// Padding
var p = 10;
var canvas = document.getElementById("canvas");
var context = canvas.getContext("2d");
function drawBoard(){
for (var x = 0; x <= bw; x += 40) {
context.moveTo(0.5 + x + p, p);
context.lineTo(0.5 + x + p, bh + p);
}
for (var x = 0; x <= bh; x += 40) {
context.moveTo(p, 0.5 + x + p);
context.lineTo(bw + p, 0.5 + x + p);
}
context.strokeStyle = "black";
context.stroke();
}
drawBoard();
