12TablesIn Chapter 11, I introduced positioning. In this chapter, I discuss some odds and ends related tostyling (X)HTML elements and the controls that CSS provides for flexibility.Tables are primarily a method to show the relationship between data, much as a spreadsheetapplication does. As I explore some acceptable uses of tables in this chapter, I discuss:❑❑❑❑The optional table elements that can make it easier to style a table and that make thestructure more intuitiveControlling placement of the table captionControlling the layout of the tableControlling the spacing between table cellsTables can be complex creatures in (X)HTML. If used properly, they allow information to be presentedin a neat, organized, and consistent manner. Put simply, data that needs to show relation andlogic should be placed into tables. The discussion presented in this chapter also plays heavily into thediscussion about styling XML in Chapter 14. The examples presented in Chapter 14 are identical tothose presented in this chapter with one very important difference: They’re written in XML.Tables have several optional elements that may be used to further enhance the structure and presentationof a table. This is where I start the discussion.Optional Table ElementsThe element has several optional elements that can be used to enhance the presentationof a table, including captions, columns, headings, and footers. Take a look at a elementthat makes use of all these optional elements. When I get into the discussion of styling tables,beginning with the section “Table Captions and the caption-side Property,” you’ll need to understandwhat is possible in a table. I also present CSS 2 properties that are table-specific, allowingmore control over table presentation. The markup in Figure 12-1 shows a table complete with allthe optional bells and whistles.
Part II: PropertiesFigure 12-1In Figure 12-1, you can see that (X)HTML tables support many additional, optional elements.456❑❑The element is used to provide the table with a caption or the name of the table.The element is used to enclose each of the table elements.
