HTML <td> Tag

To define the data cells of an HTML table the HTML <td> tag is used as the child element of <tr> (table row) tag. These cells are used to place data in the table. Multiple <td> data elements can be placed within an HTML <tr> tag. Within a <tr> tag, the grouped <td> elements are displayed as a single row in the table. By default, it displays the data as regular and left-aligned in the table.
