Nothing
Used in
column_content
The
<col>
tag may appear only within a
<colgroup>
tag within a table. It
has no content and thus has no ending tag in HTML. Use
</col>
or a lone
forward slash at the end of the tag (
<col />
) for the required XHTML end
tag. The
<col>
tag represents one or more columns within a
<colgroup>
to which an HTML 4/XHTML-compliant browser applies the
<col>
tag's at-
tributes.
All the currently popular browsers support the
<col>
tag and its attrib-
utes.
