Create a functional and attractive layout for your W4 web
page and use a table to implement this layout. Use your HTML/XHTML
guidebook or online resource for instructions on how to construct
tables. Use colspan=number of columns and
rowspan=numberofrows to span two or more columns or rows. Set
border="1" so that you can see what you are doing while you are
working, then set border="0" to make the border "disappear."
Carefully close your table, table row, and table data entries. Check
your work in both the IE and Netscape browsers. If your data does not
show up in Netscape, check to be sure that your table, table row, and
table data entries are closed. In general, avoid putting tables within
other tables, and avoid mixing absolute
(width/height=numberofpixels) and relative values
(width/height=number%). Use the W3C MarkUp Validation Service
to validate your code for your tables.
