I found it easier to make the tables and show you the code then to try to explain how to do the tables, but I will explain the tags for you.

. are your opening and closing tags.  There are several tags that will be inserted into your tags.  The are as follows:

Back Top

TAG	Description	Example
Align	specifies alignment of the tables in the browser's window	align="left/center /right"
Width	specifies the width of the table in pixels or percentage	width="XXX" or width="XX%"
Border	Specifies the width (in pixels) of the border around table	border="XXX"
Cellspacing	is the spacing between cells	cellspacing="XXX"
Cellpadding	is the space between a cell and its contents	cellpadding="XXX"
Bgcolor	Is the color of the table's background (click here for more info)	bgcolor="color"
Bordercolor	is the color of the tables borders	bordercolor="blue"
All of the above tags will go into your tag.  An example bgcolor="blue" bordercolor="green"> Back Top, Cell Tags , These are to define the text in each cell. text align specifies the horizontal alignment of the cells content align="left/ center/right" valign specifies the vertical alignment of the cell's content valign="top/middle/ bottom/baseline" colspan is the number of rows spanned by this cell colspan="XXX" rowspan is the number of rows spanned by this cell rowspan="XXX" , is to define a header cell in a row of table is to define a table row An example of the above tags would be: text Back Top Lets take a look at some examples.   A basic 3x2 Table A B C D E F                           A B C D E F Back Top Two Demonstrations of rowspan Item 1 Item 2 Item 3 Item 4 Item 5                        Item 1 Item 2 Item 3 Item 4 Item 5 Back Top Demonstration of colspan Item 1 Item 2 Item 3 Item 4 Item5                         Item 1 Item 2 Item 3 Item 4 Item 5 Back Top Demonstration of Headers Head 1 Head 2 Head 3 A B C D E F                                        Head1 Head2 Head3 A B C D E F   Back Top Demonstration of Colspan and Headers Header 1 Header 2 A B C D E F G H                                                      Head1 Head2 A B C D E F G H Back Top Demonstration of multiple headers, colspan Head 1 Head 2 Head 3 Head 4 Head 5 Head 6 A B C D E F G H                                                                  Head1 Head2 Head 3 Head 4 Head 5 Head 6 A B C D E F G H Back Top Demonstration of side headers Head 1 Item 1 Item 2 Item 3 Head 2 Item 4 Item 5 Item 6 Head 3 Item 7 Item 8 Item 9                                        Head1 Item 1 Item 2 Item 3 Head2 Item 4 Item 5 Item 6 Head3 Item 7 Item 8 Item 9 Back Top Demonstration of side headers, rowspan Header 1 Item 1 Item 2 Item 3 Item 4 Item 5 Item 6 Item 7 Item 8 Header 2 Item 9 Item 10 Item 11 Item 12                                                 Head1 Item 1 Item 2 Item 3 Item 4 Item 5 Item 6 Item 7 Item 8 Head2 Item 9 Item 10 Item11 Item 12 Back Top Sample table using all of these     Average    Height Weight Gender Males 1.9 0.003 Females 1.7 0.002                                                                                Average    Height Weight Gender Males 1.9 0.003 Females 1.7 0.002 Back Top Clever uses of rowspan colspan A 1 2 3 4 C D                                       A 1 2 3 4 C D Back Top
