Format tables and cells
You
can change the appearance of tables by setting properties for the
table and its cells or by applying a preset design to the table.
Before you set table and cell properties, be aware that the order
of precedence for formatting is cells, rows, and tables.
 To format the text inside a table cell, use the
same procedures you would use to format text outside of a table. Change the format of a table, row, cell, or column- Select a table, cell, row, or column.
- In the Property inspector (Window > Properties),
click the expander arrow in the lower-right corner and change properties
as necessary.
- Change the properties as necessary.
For more information on the options, click the Help icon
on the Property inspector.
Note: When you set properties on a
column, Dreamweaver changes the attributes
of the td tag corresponding to each cell in the
column. When you set certain properties for a row, however, Dreamweaver changes the attributes of the tr tag
rather than changing the attributes of each td tag
in the row, When you’re applying the same format to all the cells
in a row, applying the format to the tr tag produces
cleaner, more concise HTML code.
