Define a Table Cell With HTML

Step 1

Find or create a table in the HTML file (

element) in which you want to define a cell.

Step 2

Find or create a row within the table (

element) to which you want to add a cell.

Step 3

Define the cell by placing its content between an opening

tag. The content will typically be text, but could be any HTML construct, such as an image.

Step 4

Give additional formatting to the cell by adding a class or style attribute, or cell-specific attributes such as width. The cell will also inherit formatting information from the

element for the column of which it is a part, if any.

Tips & Warnings

Table cells can also be part of table headers (

element) and table footers ( element).
