How to Set Cellpadding and Cellspacing in CSS

How to adjust spacing separately for the top, right, left, and bottom of each cell?

You can use the CSS padding property to adjust the spacing of each cell in an HTML table separately. The padding property takes up to four values, which correspond to the top, right, bottom, and left sides of the element, respectively.

Here’s an example of how to adjust the spacing of each cell separately in an HTML table:

html> html> head> title>Title of the document title> head> body> table> tr> td style="padding: 10px 20px 30px 40px; background-color: cyan;">Cell 1 td> td style="padding: 20px 30px; background-color: cyan;">Cell 2 td> tr> tr> td style="padding: 0 0 10px; background-color: cyan;">Cell 3 td> td style="padding: 0 20px; background-color: cyan;">Cell 4 td> tr> table> body> html>

In this example, the first cell in the first row has a padding of 10 pixels for the top, 20 pixels for the right, 30 pixels for the bottom, and 40 pixels for the left. The second cell in the first row has a padding of 20 pixels for the top and bottom, and 30 pixels for the right and left. The first cell in the second row has a padding of 0 pixels for the top and right, and 10 pixels for the bottom. The second cell in the second row has a padding of 0 pixels for the top and bottom, and 20 pixels for the right and left.

You can adjust the values of the padding property to achieve the desired spacing for each cell in the table. Additionally, you can use CSS classes to apply the same padding values to multiple cells in the table.

CSS Table Cell Padding

The table tag is already familiar with the HTML concepts, including cell padding, which is the HTML attribute. The attribute creates some space inside the table cell to get a white space or names it as padding between the element and table sides of the HTML, like the same as the CSS padding property or the attribute, which allows the same kind of spaces in the style document. We can set the CSS Padding property to align the table cells and different padding for each side of the table cells. By using this property, there is no limitation to the table cells.

Web development, programming languages, Software testing & others

Syntax

Using tag, we can set the table padding, sizes, and borders.

The above codes describe the basic syntax for the padding property of CSS style tags in HTML. We will use the class and table names to set the padding styles on web pages.

The padding property is used for table data in the above examples; the first one is the basic padding style example for the css table; the second one is we use some colors for highlighting the values in table cells; and final example, we use the menu bar styles like horizontal and vertical here basically horizontal is enable for the data so we can set the property has overflow:x it will enable automatically in the CSS table.

Conclusion

In CSS Style, We can’t apply the CSS padding in table-row-groups, table-header-groups, table-footer-groups, table-rows, table-columns, and table-column-groups elements in the web page. CSS3 removes the percentage format for potential padding values and introduces negative values as auto-increment values. This specification is in draft status only. It may include in future specifications.
