Table Tutor - Quick Index
A basic 2-row,
<table border="2"> <tr> <td>Roses</td> <td>are</td> <td>red</td> </tr> <tr> <td>Violets</td> <td>are</td> <td>blue</td> </tr> </table> |
Useful and optional table attributes: (In addition to the attributes shown here, there are a few others. The ones here are limited to those that are commonly used, widely supported and mentioned in this tutorial. Consult the BareBones Guide packed with this tutorial for an expanded listing.) <table cellpadding=0 or greater cellspacing=0 or greater border=0 or greater width=pixel or percent value height=pixel or percent value bgcolor="#123456" (applies to whole table) background="myimage.gif" (applies to whole table) rules="rows|cols|none|all"> <tr bgcolor="#123456"> (applies to whole row) align="left|center|right" (applies to whole row) valign="top|middle|bottom"> (applies to whole row) <td align="left|center|right" valign="top|middle|bottom" width=pixel or percent value bgcolor="#123456" colspan=1 or greater rowspan=1 or greater background="myimage.gif"> |
Remember, it's very good practice to ALWAYS include </td>, </tr> and </table> closing tags in your tables. If you don't, you run the risk of large chunks of your page not being rendered in some browsers. Consider yourself warned ;-)
