How to make a simple homepage with a table

Step 2. Adding tables

Let us construct a table with the following data:

   Week 1   575
   Week 2   678
   Week 3   801
   Week 4   625
   Week 5   821

in our sample homepage.  For this, we use the <table> tags
between <body> </body> in the homepage source file.

Filename: scores.html
<html>

<head>
</head>

<body>

<table>
</table>

</body>
</html>
Let us specify the first row of the table with <tr>, </tr> and the two data items with <td> </td>:
<table>

  <tr>
    <td>Week 1</td>
    <td>575</td>
  </tr>

</table>
By continuing in this way for each row, we get:
Filename: scores.html
<html>

<head>
</head>

<body>

<table>
  <tr>
    <td>Week 1</td><td>575</td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td>Week 2</td><td>678</td>
  </tr>
          .
          .
          .
</table>

</body>
</html>
[ View result ]
We can add borders to tables as follows:
Filename: scores_with_border.html
<html>

<head>
</head>

<body>

<table border=3>
    .
    .
    .
</table>

</body>
</html>
[ View result ]
