Now that you have read through the Basic Codes and Colors, you have probably already tried to use these codes in your Art Gallery or Student Blog.

Remember: You can use more than one code at a time. To make a website, you have to use many of these codes together.

Here are some examples of a Student Blog merging these basic codes together and making their page look fantastic!

Using a Table

The table is such a blessing to simple websites, like WebCT's Art Gallery. It is pretty flexible: you can make a chart of information or organize your site content. Here is how to make a simple Table and how to manipulate it into what you need.

Tip #2: Remember that all of the table codes have an opening tag and a closing tag. One of the biggest reasons a table code does not work is that a closing tag is forgotten. Do not forget your closing tags!

Tip #3: A table is like a grid filled with boxes. "tr" means row and "td" means column. So you can have as many rows as you want and as many columns within them.

Opening Tags
<table> <tr> <td>	Opens Table Opens Row 1 Opens Column 1

You can put some content into the column here.

Closing Tags
</td> </tr> </table>	Closes Column 1 Closes Row 1 Closes Table

More coming soon...
