Hi Beth

Those pairs like <td></td> and <br></br> aren't really necessary. Though its part of basic HTML, its rare to find a case where the system can't figure out when something like that ends. The exception to this is something like <Table></Table>. if you don't include that terminating tag on a table, it will interpret everything after that point as part of the table.

You can put in </td> and </br> if you want. They won't cause harm. But they are just excess typing, and make it a bit harder to find problems. Q 09:03, 13 June 2008 (EDT)

Okay Q; change it to what it should be and then I will know the proper way to do this for future tables. --Beth 09:46, 13 June 2008 (EDT)

There's nothing wrong with putting them in. Its just not necessary. Q 09:52, 13 June 2008 (EDT)

Q, I am not clear on what is necessary for the empty cell. Do you put <td><td> or just <td>?--Beth 10:10, 13 June 2008 (EDT)

If what you want to do is create an empty cell, then simply put in <td>. Q 13:10, 13 June 2008 (EDT)
