summary • Web sites make extensive use of tables to present text, images, products, and even to format the page content itself. • To create a table within a web page, developers use the <table> and </table> tag pair. • Within the table definition, the developers use the <tr> and </tr> tag pair to define a row. • Each row consists of one or more cells which developers specify using the <td> and </td> tag pair. In this chapter, you made extensive use of tables to format a variety of data. • Using style attributes, you can control whether or not a table has a border, the height and width of the table and its cells, as well as the alignment. • You can also create a nested table, which is a table within a table.
