- The
<table>
element is used to add tables to a web page. - A table is drawn out row by row. Each row is created with the
<tr>
element. - Inside each row there are a number of cells represented by the
<td>
element (or<th>
if it is a header). - You can make cells of a table span more than one row or column using the rowspan and colspan attributes.
- For long tables you can split the table into a
<thead>
,<tbody>
, and<tfoot>
.
- An object is a series of variables and functions that represent something from the world around you.
- In an object, variables are known as properties of the object; functions are known as methods of the object.
- Web browsers implement objects that represent both the browser window and the document loaded into the browser window.
- JavaScript also has several built-in objects such as String, Number, Math, and Date. Their properties and methods offer functionality that help you write scripts.
- Arrays and objects can be used to create complex data sets (and both can contain the other).
