Putting table into Bootstrap popover


I have a Bootstrap popover and I'm trying to put a table into it but then it doesn't show up when I click on it. This is the first time attempting HTML inside a popover so I'm unsure how to go about doing it correctly. Thanks!

$(function(){
    $("[data-toggle=popover]").popover({
        html : true,
        content: function() {
          var content = $(this).attr("data-popover-content");
          return $(content).children(".popover-body").html();
        },
        title: function() {
          var title = $(this).attr("data-popover-content");
          return $(title).children(".popover-heading").html();
        }
    });
});
 <a role="button" class="btn btn-link btn-item black-text" data-toggle="popover" data-trigger="focus" data-placement="top" title="Currency Converter" data-content="Displayed rates are only for informational purposes and do not reflect on the actual rates you may be charged by the financial institution handling your transaction.
<table class='table table-condensed table-bordered'>
<tr><td>Euro</td><td>€79,123</td></tr>
<tr><td>GB Pound</td><td>£46,536</td></tr>
<tr><td>AU $</td><td>$123,456</td></tr>
