Tables can be used for a variety of things. Be creative in your use of tables on home pages: calendars, charts, "tabbed" lists, and "button bars."
Simple tables are comprised of three primary tags:
<TABLE>
<TR>
<TD>
These indicate: table, table row and table cell, respectively. These basic tags can be augmented with options. For example, you can specify the width of the cell's border, the distance between the cells, and the distance between the information in the cell and the cell itself. You can also specify how many rows or columns a given cell should span. You can indicate a caption for table if you'd like.
Example table code might look like:
<CENTER><TABLE BORDER="1" CELLPADDING="5" CELLSPACING="2">
<CAPTION>Your Title Here</CAPTION>
<TR>
<TD>Table Data</TD>
<TD>More Table Data</TD>
</TR>
<TD>More Table Data</TD>
<TD>Table Data</TD>
</TR>
</TABLE>
</CENTER>
The sample code above would result in the following table:
| Table Data | More Table Data |
| More Table Data | Table Data |
The remainder of this page are some sample tables that have been created for use on home pages. Choose the menu option VIEW : Source to see how they vary from the previous example.
