CHAPTER 8

Working with Tables

Are you looking for a way to organize data on your web page into rows and columns? This chapter shows you how to use HTML tables to do this. You create tables using an outer <table> tag and various other tags within it. A <tr> tag defines a row in a table, and <td> tags define data cells within the row. In addition to organizing data with tables, you can add color or background images behind the data in tables. You can also use tables as layout tools to organize sections of content on your page.
