# HTML Tables ## Cloning Down Your Repository If you already have a personal repository: ``` git clone https://github.com//exceptional-realty cd exceptional-realty git fetch --all git checkout main-pages ``` If you want to use the demo repository to follow along: ``` git clone https://github.com/learn-co-curriculum/exceptional-realty-demo cd exceptional-realty-demo git fetch --all git checkout html-tables ``` **Remember to use `httpserver` to live test your webpage** \ [HTML Tables](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mHeCqIctSRU) In this lesson, we're going to go over creating tables. In our `market-report.html` page, go ahead and set up the basic document structure, change the title in the `` to say 'Exceptional Realty - Luxury Homes - Market Report', and add in our `

` and `

` main page headers. Then, let's add an below that `

` with 'Market Report' inside. ## `
` To add a table, we first need to write opening and closing `` tags. This tells our browser to interpret anything inside as part of the table. Inside these tags, we'll use a few other elements to designate the rows, headers and cells of the table. ## `` To make a row inside our table, we use the *table row* tag, ``. So if we wanted to have four rows in our table, including our headers, it would look like this: ```
``` Any content we want in a row would go inside that particular ``. ## ` ` Tables generally start with a row of headers to label columns for the rows below. To do this, we use ``, the *table header* tag. Let's add four headers to this table, 'Address,' 'City,' 'State,' and 'Sales Price,' adding them in in the first table row. ```
Address City State Sales Price
``` ## ` ` In the next row down, we can start putting our information. In this row, instead of using the *table header* tag, we want to use the *table data* tag, ``, which will represent one table cell. So, for our table data, we can just make up some addresses in cities and states, as well as a sales price, and add them in. An example row would look like the following: ``` 2345 Fairview Ln. Brooklyn New York $1.2 mil ``` As long as each bit of data in a `` is in the same position as the corresponding ``, it will show up in that column. Go ahead and fill 4 rows in with data before moving on, then check out the results on your live page using `httpserver` (make sure to add `/market-report.html` to the end of your URL path). If you're working from your own repository, push up your work to your remote repo before continuing: ``` git add . git commit -m 'add listing table to real-estate-listings.html' git push ``` View [HTML Tables](https://learn.co/lessons/html-tables) on Learn.co and start learning to code for free. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
