Setting the Insert Repeating Table dialog box options

The purpose of this dialog box is to specify the attributes of a repeating table before inserting it.

To complete the Insert Repeating Table dialog box:

1. Specify the following options:

   Rows determines the number of rows the table has.

   Columns determines the number of columns the table has.

   Cell Padding determines the number of pixels between a cell’s content and the cell boundaries.

   Cell Spacing determines the number of pixels between adjacent table cells.

   TIP

   If you don’t explicitly assign values for cell padding and cell spacing, most browsers display the table as if cell padding were set to 1 and cell spacing were set to 2. To ensure that browsers display the table with no padding or spacing, set Cell Padding and Cell Spacing to 0.

   Width specifies the width of the table in pixels, or as a percentage of the browser window’s width.

   Border specifies the width, in pixels, of the table’s borders.

   TIP

   If you don’t explicitly assign a value for border, most browsers display the table as if the border were set to 1. To ensure that browsers display the table with no border, set Border to 0. To view cell and table boundaries when the border is set to 0, select View > Visual Aids > Table Borders.

   Repeat Rows of the Table specify which rows in the table are included in the repeating region.

   Starting Row sets the row number entered as the first row to include in the repeating region.

   Ending Row sets the row number entered as the last row to include in the repeating region.

   Region Name lets you set a unique name for the repeat region.

2. Click OK to insert the table.
