Note on Table Construction
TR = Table Row TD = Cell (Table Detail)
A Table is made up of Rows <TR> divided into cells <TD>. The Table is constructed row by row (i.e. not column by column).
A row is the 'space' in the HTML between <TR> and </TR>. This row is then divided into cells. The cell is the 'space' in the HTML between <TD> and </TD>.
HTML 4.0 compliance requires changes to the tag-details above. Tags may generally be replaced following this format example using inline styles:
<td style="background-color: #FFFFFF> replaces <td bgcolor=#FFFFFF>
