HTML Table headings

In HTML tables, you can also use Table headings. We use table headings both of vertically & horizontally.

Try the example below which demonstrates how to use horizontal headings as the column names.

FILE : table-headings.html

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8" />
<title>Table Headings</title>
</head>
<body>
<table border="1">
	<tr>
		<th>Time</th>	
		<th>Week days</th>	
		<th>Saturday</th>	
		<th>Sunday</th>	
	</tr>
	<tr>
		<td>20:00-22:00</td>
		<td>Sleep</td>
		<td>Watch TV</td>
		<td>Watch TV</td>
	</tr>
	<tr>
		<td>22:00-00:00</td>
		<td>Sleep</td>
		<td>Watch a Movie</td>
		<td>Sleep</td>
	</tr>
</table>
</body>
</html>
