23. Table

Table elements in web design provide a robust and flexible way to display data and content. They are not only valuable for listing things but can also serve as dynamic containers for various content types.

To utilize the table element, navigate to "Add elements" and drag and drop the "table" option into your design area. Each table element comes with placeholders that help visualize its structure - it includes a top heading, a side heading, and content areas.

The versatility of table elements is what makes them truly stand out. You can incorporate various elements such as buttons, lines, or additional text, making it a potent tool for designers.

Several customization options are available with the table element. By accessing the "container options" in the top right corner, you can modify padding, margins, color schemes, and more. It also allows you to set up alternate row colors and adjust the table's width within its bounding box.

Adding rows and columns is a breeze – you can use the predefined options or enter your own values. The heading and sidebars are also fully customizable – you can add icons, modify typography, and change colors. You can also adjust the padding for the header independently.

Once you've customized your table, it's essential to ensure that it displays correctly on various devices. On larger displays, tables often work beautifully, but the layout can get squashed on tablets or mobile devices, especially when dealing with multi-column setups.

In such cases, consider creating alternative designs for smaller screens or rely on the scrolling function. This enables users to access all the information, even when the table is larger than the display size.

Remember, the table element is a powerful tool in web design, offering tremendous flexibility and customization. With it, you can create engaging, dynamic, and responsive designs that work seamlessly across all devices.
