Top HTML Tables Tutorial

HTML tables were first introduced in the HTML 2.0 RFC 1942 specification in May of 1996 and were further refined in the HTML 3.2 specification in January of 1997. Tables were created to allow designers to arrange data easily into rows and columns. Because tables allowed great control over the location of data, tables were often used as structural elements of websites with entire websites consisting of tables within tables as their website design. Due to the difficulty in modifying table-based design along with the advent of cascading style sheets (CSS), tables have fallen out of favor. Tables have now been relegated now to displaying tabular data, data that is best displayed in a chart format.

There are three main pieces of an HTML table, the 'table' tag, the 'tr' tag and the 'td' tag. The 'tr' tag denotes a new table row, while a 'td' tag creates a new table cell. In addition to these tags, there are the optional tags of 'th', 'thead', 'tbody', and 'tfoot'. These tags can be used to help separate your table into sections to allow greater control over the appearance of the table.

When building a table, it's important to ensure that every table row has the same number of cells within it. If you do not have the same number of cells in each row, unpredictable things will happen that will distort the appearance of your table. A cell can be expanded through use of the colspan attribute to cover the area of multiple cells. The rowspan attribute can be used to have a table cell extend multiple rows vertically. The example below uses the colspan attribute and can give an idea of how it is used.
