General HTML Guide: Tables and Frames

TABLES

The tags;

<table> creates the table,
<tr> creates the rows in the table,
<td> creates the columns in the table.

Here is a simple example;

                <table>
                <tr>
                <td> ..whatever.. </td>
                <td> ..whoever.. </td>
                </tr>
                <tr>
                <td> ..wherever.. </td>
                <td> ..whenever.. </td>
                </tr>
                </table>

This creates a default 2*2 table with 'whatever' in the top-left, 'whoever' in the top-right, 'whenever' in the bottom-right, and 'wherever' in the bottom-left.
I say default because you can manipulate its look by adding modifiers to the <table> open tag.
Modifiers: height, width, cellspacing, cellpadding, border.

Example:

FRAMES

The tags;

<frameset> replaces the <body> tags in the web page,
<frame src> source of html doc for a particular frame.

Basic frame setup;

The '#' are filled with either percentages, pixels, or *. '*' signifies whatever fraction remaining.

e.g. - <frameset COLS="30%,*">

Frames can also be divided by rows;

<frameset ROWS="#,#">

Mix and match to create your web page.
