What
Is A Table?
A “table”
is a special set of HTML element tags that enable a designer to
divide a portion of the page up into individual columns and rows.
This structure is very
useful for formatting “spreadsheet”-type displays and
many other applications.
The following display
is created using the Table tags:
|
Row 1, Column
1
|
Row 1, Column
2 |
Row 1, Column
3 |
|
Row 2, Column
1
|
Row 2, Column
2 |
Row 2, Column
3 |
|
Row 3, Column
1
|
Row 3, Column
2 |
Row 3, Column
3 |
Each individual “cell”
of a table (intersection of a row and a column) can act like its
own mini-page. You can even have tables inside tables!
Table structure is
organized by row, and then by column. Each row of a table must
have the same number of columns as the previous row, or the table
will not appear properly (or it may not appear at all, depending
on the browser).
The
General Structure Of Tables:
<TABLE>
<TR>
<TD>Content Of Row 1, Column 1</TD>
<TD>Content Of Row 1, Column 2</TD>
</TR>
</TABLE>
