If you want to add column headers to a table, you need to use "th" elements instead of "td" elements in the first row of the table. "th" elements are displayed in bold and centered by default.
Below is a tutorial example of adding column headers to a table:
<?xml version="1.0" ?> <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd"> <html> <head> <title>Column Headers</title> </head> <body> <h4>Online Order</h4> <table border="1" width="300"> <tr><th>Description</th><th>Qty</th><th>Price</th></tr> <tr><td>Email Account</td><td>10</td><td>$9.90</td></tr> <tr><td>FYIcenter.com Ad</td><td>1</td><td>$99.00</td></tr> <tr><td>1-year Access</td><td>1</td><td>$199.00</td></tr> </table> </body> </html>
If you save the above document as column_headers.html, and view it with
Internet Explorer, you will see that the first row is displayed as column headers
as shown below:
