HTML Table

HTML Tables are used to arranging the data into the row and column formate. In other word HTML Table create the tabular form of data.

HTML Table structure consists 3 tags that is <table>, <tr> and <td>. Where <table> tag is the starting tag, <tr> tag defines the table row and <td> defines the table column.

Example 1 – HTML Table Tag Example

<html>
  <body>
    <table>
        <tr>
          <td>S. No.</td>
          <td>Name</td>
          <td>Marks</td>
        </tr>
        <tr>
          <td>1</td>
          <td>Monica</td>
          <td>88</td>
        </tr>
    </table>
  </body>
</html>

This is the syntax of the table where <tr> tag is used to create the row of table and <td> tag is used to insert the data in to the table row.
