Tables

<table cellpadding = cellspacing = 3 width = 700 border= 2 bordercolor = green>

We can set the width for the table. We can also set how much padding should be in each cell and how much spacing there should be between cells. We can also set a border and a border color.

<td colspan = 2">

We can make one column extend through 2 or more columns with the colspan command. 



     
          Cell 1
     
     
          Cell 3
          Cell 4
     




This was accomplished by :

<table border = 1>
<tr>
<td colspan=2 ><center>Cell 1</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Cell 3</td>
<td>Cell 4</td>
</tr>
</table>





<td rowspan = 2">

We can make a row extend through 2 or more rows with the rowspan command.

           Cell 2
     
     
          
          Cell 4
     




This was accomplished by :

<table border = 1>

<td>Cell 1</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Cell 3</td>
</tr>
</table>
