html table of,TABLE - HTML Tables
Some browsers (in particular, the 1.x, 2.x and 3.x versions of Netscape) do not
honor the ALIGN attribute on a table with a value of CENTER. For these browsers, enclose
the entire table in a CENTER or
The downside of the above workaround is that on browsers that do
not support tables, but do support centered text,
the contents of the table will be rendered as centered. In
some cases, this can be "fixed" by enclosing the contents of the
table cell with something like

Avoid using pixel widths for a table. They force that the browser
window is sized to a particular width to see the entire table, which
is not always desirable, let alone possible. However,
the first version of Internet Explorer does not support the WIDTH
attribute with a percentage value.
Tables are often used for page layout purposes. This is not
recommended, since it totally screws up the display for browsers which
do not support tables, and it also often gives awkward results on small
screens.
Earlier drafts of HTML 3.2 allowed the BORDER attribute to be
given without value (and then the value defaulted to 1). The final
version only permits BORDER=n.
The HTML 3.0 draft did not include the values for the
BORDER attribute, so browsers which use this table model might draw
a border around your table when you use BORDER=0.
An empty table cell is typically drawn differently than a non-empty
cell. If you need a table cell with non content, but with the same
appareance as a non-empty cell, put " " in the cell.
