<TABLE>
<TR>
<TD>1</TD>
<TD>2</TD>
</TR>
</TABLE>

Each tag within the table serves a purpose. For example:

• Every table must open with this tag <TABLE> and close with this tag </TABLE>.

• Every table row must open with this tag <TR> and close with this tag </TR>.

  Here is a table with three rows:

  1

  2

  3

• Each table row also contains one or more table data cells. Every table data cell must open with this tag <TD> and close with this tag </TD>.

  Here is an example of a table with one table row and three table data cells:

  1

  2

  3

So, if you have the following table code in your page:

<TABLE border=1 width=70%>
<TR>
<TD>1</TD>
<TD>2</TD>
</TR>
</TABLE>

The table will appear like this, when you view your page:

Notice, this is a table with one table row and two table data cells.
