Tables: Basic Tables

Note: The HTML pages are out-of-date and will not be updated.

Sets of information can be grouped into rows and columns using basic table codes. To place a standard thin-line border around the table and between cells, use the border attribute within the <TABLE> code. To create a thicker border around the table, use a number representing size in pixels within the border attribute as in the third example below.
