Making a Border for an HTML Table

Video Transcript

"Hi, I'm Dorian Winterfeld on behalf of Expert Village. I've been doing web programming for about ten years. Today, we are going to cover the basics of HTML. We are showing you how to make a simple table in a web page. We have the open table tag; we have the close table tag. We have one row; a row starts with a tr tag, and a closing tr tag. These are the column headers, or table headers: name, address, and phone number. We save the file, we reload it, and we see our column headers that we added there. To make it easier to read to see that it's a table, I am going to add an attribute to table. I'm going to say border =1. What that does is it turns on a border on the table, so that when I reload my page it's easier to see that it is a table."
