HTML Layout

Previous Next

Everywhere on the Web you will find pages that are formatted like newspaper pages using HTML columns.


HTML Layout - Using Tables

One very common practice with HTML, is to use HTML tables to format the layout of an HTML page.

A part of this page is formatted with two columns, like a newspaper page.

As you can see on this page, there is a left column and a right column.

This text is displayed in the left column.

An HTML <table> is used to divide a part of this Web page into two columns.

The trick is to use a table without borders, and maybe a little extra cell-padding.

No matter how much text you add to this page, it will stay inside its column borders.
