Tables are extremly useful, they make things more organized, easy to read, and can save you some room on your page. Lets say you had two paragraphs something like this...
This is the first paragraph
How could you make the two paragraphs side-by-side? That's where tables are helpful...
You can set up a simple table to make the paragraphs side-by-side...
For Example:
| This is the first paragraph I want on my page... | This is the second paragraph I want on my page... |
<table border="1"> <tr> <td>This is the first paragraph I want on my page...</td> <td>This is the second paragraph I want on my page...</td> </tr> </table>You can also align images side by side and in rows:
![]() |
![]() |
![]() |
![]() |
![]() |
![]() |
<table> <tr> <td><img></td> <td><img></td> <td><img></td> </tr> <tr> <td><img></td> <td><img></td> <td><img></td> </tr> </table>
There are many attributes that work with tables, Here are some of them that should get you started...
Remember you can compile these 
| These go inside the <table> tag | |
|---|---|
| border="#" | Determines the border width around the entire table. |
| width="%" | Determines the width of the table in percentages. |
| height="%" | Determines the height of the table in percentages. |
| cellspacing="#" | Determines how much space is between the cells. |
| bgcolor="red, blue, etc..." | Determines the background color of the table. |
| These go inside the <td> tag | |
|---|---|
| width="%" | Determines the width of the cell in percentages. |
| height="%" | Determines the height of the cell in percentages. |
| colspan="#" | Sets the number of columns a cell spans. |
| rowspan="#" | Sets the number of rows a cell spans. |
| bgcolor="red, green, etc..." | Determines the back ground color of each cell |
| align="left, center, or right" | Sets the alignment of cells. |
| valign="top, middle, or bottom" | Sets the vertical alignment for cells. |
For the width an height attributes you can also you numbers (i.e height="250" width="500")
