www.serversetup.tv/html5-tables-tutorial/ The essentials of writing a nice HTML5 table in WordPress. Tables are a simple thing to put together in HTML and I find it much faster to make small tables manually than to use a plugin. Note: I'm not suggesting you never use plugins to make tables, just that it's also easy (and sometimes smart) to write your own HTML. The simplest table can be made using only three different HTML elements: table, tr, and td. I'll show you how to put them together. Make your tables fancier and more descriptive with the proper use of HTML5 elements like caption, thead, and tbody. These tags let machines know exactly what each piece of the tables is for, this is great for styling, cool javascript table effects, and make attractive targets for search engines to key on. Therefore using these elements may help improve your SEO! How do you style your tables and make them look good? Your themes cascading style sheets (CSS) probably already has some default table styles that match your theme. If you want to change the look of your table you'll probably have to edit 'style.css'. Unlike table tags in HTML5 where there are only a small number to remember, style in CSS3 has a myriad of options. That will have to be another video. I have lots of other great notes on my site about this too.
