Table-Pt 1

An HTML table is defined with <table> tags and contains rows (<tr>), headers (<th>), and cells (<td>). Tables can be styled by adding CSS properties like border, border-collapse, and padding to control borders and spacing. For example, the code sample adds a 1px black border around each cell and collapses the borders into a single border.

Defining an HTML Table

 An HTML table is defined with the <table> tag.


 Each table row is defined with the <tr> tag. A table header is defined with the <th> tag. By default,
table headings are bold and centered. A table data/cell is defined with the <td> tag.
Example:
<html> Basic HTML Table
<head> Firstname Lastname Age
<title></title> Jill Smith 50
</head>

<body>
<h2>Basic HTML Table</h2>

<table style="width:100%">
<tr>
<th>Firstname</th>
<th>Lastname</th>
<th>Age</th>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Jill</td>
<td>Smith</td>
<td>50</td>
</tr>
</table>

</body>
</html>

HTML Table - Adding a Border


 If you do not specify a border for the table, it will be displayed without borders.
 A border is set using the CSS border property:
Example:
table, th, td {
border: 1px solid black;
}

HTML Table - Collapsed Borders


 If you want the borders to collapse into one border, add the CSS border-collapse property:
Example:
table, th, td {
border: 1px solid black;
border-collapse: collapse;
}

HTML Table - Adding Cell Padding


 Cell padding specifies the space between the cell content and its borders.
 If you do not specify a padding, the table cells will be displayed without padding.
 To set the padding, use the CSS padding property:
Example:
th, td {
padding: 15px;
}
