The purpose of creating a web page or website is to present any information globally. It is often necessary to present data and information in tabuler form. Lets see the table elements-

The <table> </table> tag defines an HTML table. An HTML table consists of the <table> element and one or more <tr>, <th>, and <td> elements. All the elements related to table are written in Table tag.
A table may have a caption as a title or explanation for the table and it shows up at the top of the table. <caption> </caption> tag is used to give a caption for a table.
Each table row is defined with the <tr> </tr> tag. In the above table there are three rows and each row has three cells. That means, row consists of some cells.
There are two types of cells in a table. Header cells contains header information and Data cells contains data.
A table header or Header cell is defined with the <th> </th> tag and A table data or Data cell is defined with the <td> </td> tag. Both <th> </th> and <td> </td> tags are written in <tr></tr> tag.

Example-1: Write HTML code for creating the following table on the web page.

<html>
	<body>
		<table border="1">
			<Caption>Horizontal headers</Caption>
			<tr>
				<th>Name</th>
				<th>Mobile</th>
				<th>Email</th>
			</tr>
			<tr>
				<td>Mizan</td>
				<td>01724351470</td>
				<td>mizanjust@gmail.com</td> 
			</tr>
			<tr>
				<td>Amir</td>
				<td>01918038095</td>
				<td>amir@gmail.com</td> 
			</tr>
		</table>
	</body> 
</html>

Example-2: Write HTML code for creating the following table on the web page.

<html>
	<body>
		<table border="1">
			<Caption> Vertical headers </Caption>
			<tr>
				<th>Name</th>
				<td> Mizan</td>
				<td> Amir</td>

			</tr>
			<tr>
				<th>Email</th> 
				<td>mizanjust@gmail.com</td>
				<td>amir@gmail.com</td>
			</tr>
		</table>
	</body> 
</html>

Example-3: Write HTML code for creating the following table on the web page.

In the above table, the cell having contact info made span two rows. That’s why rowspan attribute should be used. In this case it would be rowspan =”2″. Because It made span two rows. That means, value will be how many rows will be spanned.

<html>
	<body>
		<table border="1">
			<Caption> Table with rowspan </Caption>
			<tr>
				<th>Name</th> 
				<td> Mizan</td>
				<td> Amir</td>
			</tr>
			<tr>
				<th rowspan="2">Contact</th>

			</tr>
			<tr> 
				<td>mizanjust@gmail.com</td>

			</tr>
		</table>
	</body>
