📊 HTML Tables

Tables in HTML help organize data in rows and columns. They are created using the <table> tag, and within that, you define rows and cells.

• <table>: Starts the table

• <tr>: Creates a new row

• <th>: Creates a header cell (bold & centered)

• <td>: Adds data to the row

📝 Use Case:

Used for displaying:

• Exam results

• Timetables

• Product lists

📝 HTML Forms

Forms are used to collect user inputs. Common use cases include contact forms, login forms, and checkout forms in e-commerce websites.

🔹 Basic Form Example:

🔹 Explanation of Tags:

• <form>: Defines the form area

• <label>: Describes the input field

• <input>: Accepts user data

• <button>: Submits the form

✅ Summary

In this lesson, you learned how to:

• Use <table>, <tr>, <td>, and <th> to structure tabular data
