The Table Head and Body Elements

3:06 with Nick Pettit

The table head element is a completely different element from the table header cell element. In combination with the table body element, the table will gain additional structure.

HTML Elements

  • <thead> - The table head element (not to be confused with the table header cell element) defines a set of rows that make up the header of a table.
  • <tbody> - The table body element defines one or more rows that make up the primary contents (or "body") of a table.
