Creating a table
Tables are a great way to organize the content of your Web site. A table consists of equally sized columns and rows. For example, you might want to list six products and include a picture, the product name, item code, and a price for each product. You could create a table consisting of six rows (one for
each product) and four columns (representing the graphic, name, item code, and price) making it a no-brainer for Web site visitors to get the lowdown on
each of your products.
You can insert a table into any area of your Web site by following these steps:
- Click WebSite on the Navigation bar of the Office Live Home page. The Page Manager opens.
- In the Page Manager area, click Edit next to the name of the page to which you’d like to add a hyperlink. The Page Editor tab of the Web Designer opens.
- Put your cursor on the spot where you’d like to insert a table, and then click Table on the Page Editor toolbar. The Create Table page opens, as shown in Figure 5-11.
- Fill in the table information. As usual, you have a few choices here. The object of the game is to select the choices that you think look best on your Web site. The preview window changes to reflect your changes as you make them.
- Select a table type: Select a product or service style table if you want to insert a preformatted table; select Generic style if you want an unformatted table.
- Select the color scheme: You have over a half dozen color choices.
- Select the numbers of columns and rows: Remember, rows run horizontally and columns run vertically.
- Click OK to close the Create Table page.
- Click in an empty cell and type your content. You can use any of the text-formatting tools to customize your text. If you type more text than a cell can hold, the cell widens automatically to accommodate your text. If you hit the Enter key, the cell elongates.
- Right-click the table and choose Properties to change how a table looks. The Table Properties page opens, as shown in Figure 5-12.
- Click Apply to save your table changes and return to the Page Editor.
- Click Save to save the changes to your Web site, and then click the red X to close the Page Editor.
