    HTML Tables - Aligning Data within Your Cells


    (Page 7 of 7 )

    Aligning the data within your cells makes it easier to read and gives it a nicer appearance. There are three ways to set your alignment: Left, Right, and Centered:


    <html>

    <body>

    <table width="400" border="1">

    <tr>

    <th align="center">This is centered</th>

    </tr>

    <tr>

    <td align="left">This is left aligned</td>

    </tr>

    <tr>

    <td align="right">This is right aligned</td>

    </tr>

    </table>

    </body>

    </html>

    The result:



    This is centered

    This is left aligned

    This is right aligned

    Note that you can also use the height and width attributes to adjust your table as well.

    While there is still plenty to learn regarding tables, we are finished with them for the moment. We'll cover the tables again and in more depth in a future tutorial. In our next episode we will discuss forms, so check back often.
