Introduction to HTML Tables
Today was a great day =D It started with talking to my favorite person in the world ❤ and then moved on to productive tasks and ended with me confirming my place at Martial Arts Academy ;) ohh yes, I love Kung Fu :D
Today, I am back to HTML. I managed to crack the error I was stuck at for a long time in the Book Log application, but I still have some pieces to go 😬
Tables
An HTML table is created with thetable
tag. The elements of the table are placed inside this tag and two important ones are:
- the
<tr>
tag that creates a table row; - the
<td>
tag that creates table cells.
Table Header
The <th>
tag can be used to create a table header cell for rows or columns. The text inside this tag is bold and centered.
Caption
In addition to table headers, there is a way to add a caption to the whole table. Use the <caption>
tag, which is usually added right after the <table>
tag
Table Borders
By default, the table and its cells have no visible borders, but they can be set using the border
attribute. Only positive numbers are valid.
The border settings automatically apply to all the cells in the table.
Setting a border using an HTML attribute is not always a good idea, It’s good practice to set a border for table elements using CSS
