Tables

The basic tags for tables are:

<TABLE BORDER></TABLE> This
tag opens the table.
For your table to have no borders shown,
use this tag in place of the above one:
<TABLE BORDER=0></TABLE>

The next tag is mandatory for a
row. Its: <TR></TR>, obviously
standing for TABLE ROW.

Within the TR tag there is another tag
for tag columns: <TD></TD>
Don't ask why its TD, it just is.

Let's say you want to say "blah".
Place "blah" after the TD tag.
So far our table either looks like this:

blah

or like this:

blah

Now to explain why tables are helpful.
They keep things organized, because
there are different boxes. Next time
you're making a table, but another TD
tag after the first.
It'll look like this (w/ a border):

blah blah 2

Here's the code for that:

Since I expect all my students to be
practically fluent in HTML, I hope
you understand this basic concept
of this and will fool around w/ the
HTML. If you have probs see me.
