The <tfoot> tag

Definition and Usage

Defines a table footer.

The thead, tfoot and tbody elements enables you to group rows in a table. When you create a table, you might want to have a header row, some rows with data, and a row with totals at bottom. This division enables browsers to support scrolling of table bodies independently of the table header and footer. When long tables are printed, the table header and footer information may be repeated on each page that contains table data.

Tips and Notes

Note: If you use the thead, tfoot and tbody elements, you must use every element, but you can leave them blank They should appear in this order: <thead>, <tfoot> and <tbody>, so that browsers can render the foot before receiving all the data. You must use these tags within the table element.

Note: The <thead>,<tbody> and <tfoot> elements are seldom used, because of bad browser support. Expect this to change in future versions of XHTML. If you have Internet Explorer 5.0 or newer, you can view an example in our XML tutorial.
