When and How to Use Tables
Tables are HTML equivalents to a simple excel spreadsheet. There are three basic tags to use to define the Table.
1. The Table itself: <table> </table>
2. A row within the table: <tr> </tr>
3. A cell within a row: <td> </td>
These tags can all be generated from the toolbar under the format menu item.
Why use a Table?
A Table can be used to structure a page. To allow pictures and text to be placed in cells across the page.
Example:
If you wanted three pictures across a page each with a caption underneath then you would need a table with two rows, each row with three cells. ie: <table> <tr> <td> pic1 </td> <td> pic 2 </td> <td> pic3 </td> </tr> <tr> <td> caption1</td> <td> caption2 </td> <td> caption3 </td> </tr> </table>
