Size of the table
There are two ways to specify the size, it can either be relative (depending on the width of the browser window, size is given in percentages) or absolute (size is given in pixels). These values can also be combined, one direction in pixels, the other in percentage. Within the first <table> tag the width="x" and height="y" values have to added. Example:
<table width="200" height="50%">

An example:
<table border="5" cellspacing="5" cellpadding="5" width="100">
<tr>
<td>content</td>
<td>of</td>
<td> this</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>table</td>
<td>is</td>
<td> all</td>
</tr>
</table>

The result
content of this
table is all

Alignment of the content of the cells
The content of a cell can be aligned horizontally in three ways: align="left", align="center" or align="right". In vertical direction we too have three options: valign="top", valign="middle" and valign="bottom". In total it gives us nine possible positions. Depending on in which <tag> the align options are placed it will align the whole table <table align="right" valign="middle">, the contents of all cells in a row <tr align="center" valign="top"> or of a single cell <td align="left" valign="bottom">. If no values are added to the tags, the browser's default stting will be taken.

An example:
<table border="5" cellspacing="5" cellpadding="5" width="200" >
<tr align="left" height="100">
<td valign="top" >content</td>
<td valign="middle" >of</td>
<td valign="bottom" > this</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td align="left">table</td>
<td align="center" >is</td>
<td align="right" > all</td>
</tr>
</table>

The result:
content

of this
table is all
