Table Components Tables are grids composed of rows and
columns. The intersection of each row and column is
a table cell. The space between cells is cell spacing. The distance between content and cell
borders is cell padding. Backgrounds can be colored or contain a
background image. Borders can be colored or invisible.

contents. Fixed widths are indicated in pixels and
content will expand to fit the content. Proportional widths are indicated in
percentages and are relative sizes.

Using Tables to ControlPage Layout
Designers try to create layout tables that will maintain their design integrity when viewed across different browser scenarios by using tables with:• fixed widths• proportional widths• a combination of both fixed and proportional
widths

Fixed-Width Tables Fixed-width tables maintain their
appearance when viewed using different screen and browser combinations.
On large screens, there can be a lot of wasted space next to or on either side of the table.
On smaller screens, a portion of the table might disappear off the right side of the browser window.

Proportional-Width Tables The table maintains its relative dimensions
regardless of the screen and browser combinations.
The designer loses control over lines and spacing as the table and/or column widths stretch or decrease.

Combination Tables Tables that contain a combination of fixed
and proportional widths are a common compromise solution.
Use fixed widths to maintain control over segments that need to remain stable.
Use proportional widths to allow other segments to flow to fit browser windows.

Creating Nested Tables A nested table is a table inserted inside
another table. The table containing the nested table is
called the parent table. Nested tables can be formatted like any
other table. The width is determined by the width of the
table cell they are contained in. Nested tables can be inserted within other
nested tables. Tables should not be nested more than
three deep.
