html_code_clinic thread: use of THEAD and TBODY


Message #1 by vinay.poddar@s... on Fri, 6 Apr 2001 21:17:22 +0530
Hi there,


<THEAD>, <TBODY> and <TFOOT> were introduced to give a table a more logical 
view. One possible use of this would be to let the <TBODY> scroll, while 
the header and footer stay at the same location. Unfortunately, this hasn't 
been implemented yet in any browser (AFAIK).
It also allows the browser to add header and footer sections to a page when 
it gets printed.

Visually, it'll allow you to create a header and a footer that looks 
different from the body by using styles.

Checkout

(tbody, tfoot and thead in particular) for more information.
