Tables are made with the <table> tag.

A table is just a concept for a collection of records. So we need to have records to create a table. Records are created with the <tr> (table row) tag. For a record to exist, you have to include data. You add table data with the <td> (table data) tag.

So our table has 2 rows and 2 columns. These columns need headings so everyone can understand what these columns represent.

To create a column heading, you use the <th> (table heading) tag instead of the <td> tag.

You can see the column headings are displayed in bold text. This is an effect of <th> tags.

However, this doesn't feel like a table without lines between table data. We add these lines using the border attribute of the <table> element.

Replace the first <table> with this line:

• <table border="1">: It sets the border around the table cells.
• <table border="0">: It removes (not set) the border around the table cells.

As explained in a previous chapter, we add CSS styles using the style attribute.

Colspan and rowspan attributes

2 unique attributes can be used with table cells. You can span table cells to 2 or more columns or rows.

I'd appreciate it if you could carefully notice how we have used colspan and rowspan to increase the space of a cell.
