HTML and CSS Reference
In-Depth Information
This chapter introduces both the XHTML techniques used to code tables to organize information and config-
ure page layout and the CSS properties that configure the display of tables on Web pages. As you use these
skills to design Web pages, keep in mind that while you'll see many examples of table page layout on the
Web, configuring page layout with CSS is the preferred method.
