HTML Tables An orderly arrangement of text and/or graphics

into vertical columns and horizontal rows.

• Table with integrated graphicshttp://www.24hourhtmlcafe.com/hour14/fearful2.htm

Within HTML tables perform many functions

• See example at: http://www.depaul.edu/~dlash/extra/Webpage/examples/examletable.html

– Control web page layout (for text and graphics)

– Separate a Web page into different areas

– Show data output in traditional table format

• Example of table as a page layout devicehttp://arnb.com/webdesign/chap5/tables/advert.htm

Guess The Table Format - 1?

What would the following display?

Introducing the <TH>

Another basic but option TAG is the <TH> similar to <TD>

<TABLE> <TR> <TH> Col 1 </TH> <TH> Col 2 </TH> </TR><TR> <TD> Cell 1</TD><TD>Cell 2</TD> </TR><TR> <TD> Cell 1</TD><TD>Cell 2</TD> </TR> </TABLE>

AdvWeb-10/37

Another Example

<HTML> <HEAD><TITLE> My First Table </TITLE> </HEAD><BODY> <TABLE> <TR> <TH> Description <TH> Size<TH> Weight</TR> <TR><TD>Gun<TD>5 Inch Barrel <TD> 20 Ounces</TR> <TR><TD>T-Rex<TD>40 Feet High <TD> Multiple Tons</TR> <TR><TD>Hurricane Floyd<TD>400 Miles Radius <TD> ????</TR> </TABLE> </BODY></HTML>

•(Sometime can get by w/o closing tags </TD>, </TH>, </TR> but this is risky business (e.g., I.E., VS Navigator.)

AdvWeb-11/37

Tables Are Their Own Environment

<HTML> <HEAD><TITLE> My First Table </TITLE> <BODY> <B> <TABLE> <TR> <TH> Description </TH> <TH> Size</TH><TH> Weight </TH> </TR> <TR> <TD>Gun</TD><TD>5 Inch Barrel</TD> <TD> 20 Ounces</TD></TR> <TR> <TD>T-Rex</TD><TD>40 Feet High </TD> <TD> Multiple Tons</TD></TR> <TR> <TD>Hurricane Floyd</TD><TD>400 Miles Radius</TD> <TD> ????</TD>

</TR> </TABLE> </B> </BODY></HTML>

You’d thinkeach element in the table would be bold

Description Size Weight

Gun 5 Inch Barrel 20 Onces

T-Rex 40 Feet High Multiple Tons

Hurricane Floyd 400 Miles Radius ????

Instead that bold is ignored w/I table

AdvWeb-12/37

Table Cells Format Like Documents...

<html><head> <title> Test </title> </head><body><table border=1> <tr> <td>Cell1 <font color=blue> <ol> <li> Happy <li> Days </ol></td> <td> Are here again. </td></tr> <tr><td> The <i>skies</i> are are <b>blue</b> again </td> <td> <img src="../donald.gif"> </td> </tr></table></body> </html>

Cell1

Are here again.

The skies are are blue again
