Inserting a table

Use the Object palette or the Insert menu to create a new table.

To insert a table:

1	Do one of the following:
	In the Document window, place the insertion point where you want the table to appear, then click the Table button on the Common panel of the Object palette, or choose Insert > Table.
	Drag the Table button from the Object palette to the desired insertion point on the page.
	The Insert Table dialog box appears.
2	In the dialog box, accept the current values or type new values.
	Note: The Insert Table dialog box retains the values of the most recent settings you entered for a table.
	In the Rows field, specify the number of table rows.
	In the Columns field, specify the number of table columns.
	In the Cell Padding field, specify the number of pixels between the cell content and the cell boundary (or wall).
	In the Cell Spacing field, specify the number of pixels between each table cell.
	In the Width field, specify the width of the table as a number of pixels or as a percentage of the browser window.
	In the Border field, specify the pixel width of the table border. Enter 0 if you don't want a border.
3	Click OK to create the table.

If you want to insert a table without having to first specify these options, turn off the Show Dialog When Inserting Objects option in the General preferences. See Setting preferences.
