Html basics 7 table
- 1. Lecture 8 In this lecture, we will learn about - How to create Table - Escape Sequences: Special Characters Tables are very useful while creating HTML pages; especially tables solve the alignment problem. A table tag has headings where you explain what the columns/rows include, rows for information, and cells for each item. In the following table, the first two rows contain the heading information, each detail row explains an HTML table tag, and each cell contains a paired tag or an explanation of the tag's function. Table Elements Element Description <TABLE> ... defines a table in HTML. If the BORDER attribute is present, your </TABLE> browser displays the table with a border. <CAPTION> ... </ defines the caption for the title of the table. The default position of the CAPTION> title is centered at the top of the table. The attribute ALIGN=BOTTOM can be used to position the caption below the table. NOTE: Any kind of markup tag can be used in the caption. <TR> ... </TR> specifies a table row within a table. You may define default attributes for the entire row: ALIGN (LEFT, CENTER, RIGHT) and/or VALIGN (TOP, MIDDLE, BOTTOM). <TH> ... </TH> defines a table header cell. By default the text in this cell is bold and centered. Table header cells may contain other attributes to determine the characteristics of the cell and/or its contents. <TD> ... </TD> defines a table data cell. By default the text in this cell is aligned left and centered vertically. Table data cells may contain other attributes to determine the characteristics of the cell and/or its contents. Here is the single cell table, the simplest table possible. <CENTER> <table border=1> <tr> <td>here is a single-celled table!</td> </tr> </table> </CENTER>
- 2. The output on the browser is here is a single-celled table! <html> <head> <title> Using Table Tag</title> </head> <body> <table border=1> <caption> Time Table for Mar-June 2005</caption> <tr> <th></th> <th>Monday</th> <th>Tuesday</th> <th>Wednesday</th> <th>Thrusday</th> <th>Friday</th> </tr> <tr> <td>9:30-10:20</td> <td>-</td> <td>-</td> <td>-</td> <td>-</td> <td><font color="blue">109</font></td> </tr> <tr> <td>10:30-11:20</td> <td>-</td> <td>-</td> <td>-</td> <td>-</td> <td><font color="blue">109</font></td> </tr> <tr> <td>11:30-12:20</td> <td>-</td> <td>-</td> <td>-</td> <td>-</td>

Character Entities) Special characters are composed of short sequence of characters that are translated by the browser and displayed as a single character. Special characters begin with an ampersand(&) and end with a semicolon (;), for example  , which is used for giving spaces between words or characters To understand type the following code in notepad <html> <head> <title>Using nbsp </title> </head> <body> My name is Harshit Kumar. </body> </html> The output is My name is Harshit Kumar. Although I gave so many spaces between “Harhsit” and “Kumar”, still the output shows only one space.
- 5. This means that browser shrink the spaces, so to insert spaces, we need . Type the following code in notepad <html> <head> <title>Using nbsp </title> </head> <body> My name is Harshit Kumar. </body> </html> The output is My name is Harshit Kumar. ------------------------------------------------------Finish----------------------------------------------
