Using Tables
Tables can be used to organize information, as well as to help format your web page. Tables can be tricky to use precisely, but they can also be the answer to all your layout problems.
Basic Table Tags
Each table must have three basic tags: <TABLE>, <TR> and <TD>. The <TABLE> tag starts and ends the table. The <TR> starts and ends each row of the table and the <TD> starts each cell of the table.

A simple table would have these tags:

<TABLE>

<TR>
<TD>This is row 1, cell 1.
<TD>This is row 1, cell 2.
</TR>

<TR>
<TD>This is row 2, cell 1.
<TD>This is row 2, cell 2.
</TR>

</TABLE>

and the result would be:

This is row 1, cell 1. This is row 1, cell 1.
This is row 2, cell 1. This is row 2, cell 2.
By adding the BORDER attribute, to the <TABLE> (in other words, the initial tag will now be <TABLE BORDER="1">), we can see the shape of the table:

This is row 1, cell 1. This is row 1, cell 1.
This is row 2, cell 1. This is row 2, cell 2.
