Define an HTML Table

A table in HTML has table cells within rows and columns.

Example

				
					<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<body>
<h2>A basic HTML table</h2>
<table style="width:100%">
  <tr>
    <th>Company</th>
    <th>Contact</th>
    <th>Country</th>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td>Alfreds Futterkiste</td>
    <td>Maria Anders</td>
    <td>Germany</td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td>Centro comercial Moctezuma</td>
    <td>Francisco Chang</td>
    <td>Mexico</td>
  </tr>
</table>
<p>To understand the example better, we have added borders to the table.</p>
</body>
</html>

Output:

A basic HTML table

Company	Contact	Country
Alfreds Futterkiste	Maria Anders	Germany
Centro comercial Moctezuma	Francisco Chang	Mexico

To understand the example better, we have added borders to the table.

Table Cells

A table in HTML has table cells within rows and columns.

Each table cell is illustrated by a <td> and a </td> tag.

td denotes table data.

Everything within <td> and </td> is the content of the table cell.

Table Rows

Each table row is startes with a <tr> and end with a </tr> tag.

tr denotes table row.

Table Headers

Using the <th> tag instead of the <td> tag allows you to make cells to be headers
