Table

A table organizes data into a grid of rows and columns.

In HTML, you can create a table on a web page using the <table> tag.

The main tags used to create a table are as follows:

• <table> : Creates the table element

• <tr> : Defines a row in the table. It stands for "table row".

• <td> : Defines a cell in the table that contains data. It stands for "table data".

• <th> : Defines a header cell in the table. It is usually rendered in bold text.

Here is a simple table example.

Copy
<table border="1">
  <tr>
    <th>Name</th>
    <th>Age</th>
    <th>Occupation</th>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td>John</td>
    <td>25</td>
    <td>Developer</td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td>Jane</td>
    <td>28</td>
    <td>Designer</td>
  </tr>
</table>

The example above creates a 3x3 table where the first row is composed of header cells, and the remaining rows are composed of data cells.

There are also tags to make the table structure more refined.

• <thead> : Groups the header content in the table

• <tbody> : Groups the body content in the table

• <tfoot> : Groups the footer content in the table
