Cell spacing and cell padding, PHP Web Programming

Let us notice at a couple of attributes called CELLSPACING and CELLPADDING. Both are part of the <TABLE> tag. CELLPADDING is the amount of space among the border of the cell and the contents of the cell. The default value for this attribute is 1. It is so that any text in the cells does not show to be sticking to the border. Though, you can indicate a value of 0 if you desire.

The CELLSPACING attribute contain a somewhat different meaning. It finds out the spacing among adjacent cells. Its default value is two. The following example illustrates these and some other significant attributes of the <TABLE> tag.
