Tables Review

TABLES REVIEW:

1.Define the table
2.Define the row
3.Define the cell

Tag Reference

These are tags used for creating tables.
table <table></table> defines the table
tr <tr></tr> defines the row
td <td></td> defines the cell
caption <caption></caption> places a title over the table. This tag goes immediately after the opening table tag and before the first row tag.
th <th></th> places a heading at the top of the table. It goes inside the table row tags.

Attributes that can be used for tables include width, border, align, summary, bgcolor, cell padding, cell spacing, bordercolorlight, bordercolordark, colspan, rowspan and non-breaking space.

First, you will see a sketch of the table I was trying to create. Next, you will see what I got, which differs from the sketch. What did I do incorrectly? (I wanted the two sides of the table to be different widths.)

The next table is my attempt to add images to a table. I added the Cattleya in the table heading position, and the Paphiopedilum in the table cell position. I also added some more attributes to include border colors.
