A table is one of the most commonly used HTML elements. It is used from being an organized data displayer, to being a complete web site layout. In this tutorial we will learn how to set HTML table width and height.
Step # 1 – The width
The width of a table can easily be set with the width attribute of the <table> element. This width can either be a pixels count or a percentage value. The percentage value allows the table to resize based on the browser size, while the fixed pixel count makes the table firm and unchangeable.
Step # 2 – The height
To set html table height just define the height attribute in the <table> element. This height can also be either pixel count or a percentage value, where percentage value allows adjusting to browser sizes no matter how small or large it can get.
