HTML Table Colgroup :
The <colgroup> element in HTML is used to group together a set of <col> elements within a table. It allows you to apply styles and attributes to multiple columns simultaneously, making it a convenient way to manage the appearance and behavior of columns in a table.
Here's a basic example of how to use <colgroup>:
<!DOCTYPE html> <html> <head> <title>Table with Colgroup</title> <style> /* Optional CSS for better styling */ table { border-collapse: collapse; width: 50%; margin: 20px; } th, td { border: 1px solid black; padding: 8px; text-align: left; } </style> </head> <body> <table> <colgroup> <col style="background-color: lightblue;"> <col span="2" style="background-color: lightgreen;"> </colgroup> <tr> <th>Header 1</th> <th>Header 2</th> <th>Header 3</th> </tr> <tr> <td>Data 1,1</td> <td>Data 1,2</td> <td>Data 1,3</td> </tr> <tr> <td>Data 2,1</td> <td>Data 2,2</td> <td>Data 2,3</td> </tr> </table> </body> </html>
In this example:
- The <colgroup> element wraps a set of <col> elements.
- Each <col> element can have various attributes and styles applied to it. In this case, background colors are applied to different columns.
- The <col span="2"> attribute in the second <col> element indicates that it should span two columns.
Using <colgroup> and <col> allows you to apply styles to columns in a more structured way. This can be particularly useful when you want to apply common styling to multiple columns without repeating the styles for each individual <th> or <td> element.
