Inserting Tables On Your Webpage

Tables are easy ways of using your space and colors affectively. They can keep you

from having too much white space and controlling where things go on your page.

One thing you need to remember, pages and the things on your internet pages can and

will move around based on the size of the window the user is viewing your page.

1. Click on Table …. Click on Insert Table

2. You can choose the number of rows and columns. You can choose a 1 row and

2 columns and put more than one line of text in a cell. So, how many rows you

need is not based on

the number of lines of

text you need. It is

based on how you

want to break up the

information

3. On alignment, choose

center. This centers

on the page/window

4. Float: leave default

5. Size: you can play

around with that

depending on what all

you have on the

table. I tend to do

75% - 40%

6. Borders: Your choice.

I don’t always have a

border because I do

borders on

stylesheets.

7. Background: you can

choose a solid color

(light) that would work

with the background you chose

8. If I need to get back to this screen and make any

changes, right click on the table and choose table

properties.

9. Remember – if you have hyperlinks in the table, the

color of text will be based on your page properties
