Tables

HTML 2.0 does not have any facility for marking up tabular material, but version 2.1 is expected to include a table which will give the author considerable flexibility in expressing the relationship between pieces of text (as of this writing, a few browsers already support table presentation). Until that version of html is in place, the only way to present tabular material is by marking it as preformatted text, e.g.

<pre>


             Fall       Winter      Spring      Summer
             ____       ______      ______      ______

    Drive     yes          yes         yes         yes

    Walk      yes        maybe         yes         yes

    Run       yes           no         yes          no

</pre>
