Tag Attributes

align String
 
The align attribute is a standard HTML attribute that specifies this element's horizontal alignment.
bgcolor String
 
The bgcolor attribute sets the background color for the table. This value can be the name or the hexadecimal value of the color.

border String
 
The border attribute sets the pixel width of the border to be drawn around the table.
cellpadding String

cellspacing String

columnClasses String
 

The columnClasses attribute accepts a comma-delimited list of CSS style classes that will be applied to the columns of the table. Style classes for an individual column may also be defined in a space separated list. A style class is applied to a table column as the value for the class attribute of rendered td or th element.

The algorithm used to apply the CSS style classes to the table columns is simple. In the table rendering process, style classes are applied to columns one at a time until (a) there are no more columns to display or (b) there are no more style classes to apply.

  • If (a) happens at the same time as (b), the next row in the table is rendered.
  • If (a) happens before (b), the remaining style classes are ignored.
  • If (b) happens before (a), the remaining columns will not have style classes.
