Hey everybody I want to let you know that I have undertaken the grueling task of getting the heck away from WordPress. I was so sick of the problems and updates I had to do all the time. I am now using my ezbloo system and I am integrating all my old posts into the new system. It sucks, but in the end, I will save bundles of time. I needed to keep things simple and that is why I created ezbloo. I'll have more on this later for you guys after I am done with the total integration of my old posts here. So if you are looking for a post and need it faster, shoot me an email and I will make it a priority. [email protected]

We use html tables when we want to position things on our document. These position are called rows and columns. They are created with tags just like everything else on a webpage.

HTML Tables Where To Use Them

There are many places that you may use html tables. You could be wanting to display a checkbook or database layout. This is where tables would come in handy. However you do not want to use tables to format an entire webpage. Why? It is very hard to get tables to be mobile responsive. This is especially true if you are using a lot of columns.

Col Span in HTML Tables

Sometimes you may want your columns to span across a few columns. For example if we are using 3 columns in a table then 1 column we want to go clear across the table we would use "colspan". <td colspan="3" ></td>
