Create Table Header in HTML

To create table header in HTML, use the <th>?</th> tag. A table header tag is surrounded by the table row <tr>?</tr>. The <tr> tag is surrounded by the <table> tag. A table consist of a rows and columns, which can be set using one or more <tr>, <th>, and <td> elements. Use the style attribute to add CSS properties for adding a border to the table.

 <tr>
   <th> Name</th>

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
   <style>
      table, th, td {
         border:1px solid black;
      }
   </style>
<body>
   <h2>Tables in HTML</h2>
   <table>
      <tr>
         <th>Name</th>
         <th>RollNo</th>
