A simple table followed by the HTML that created it:
One Two Three Four <table border="1" cellpadding="25">
<tr>
<td>One</td>
<td>Two</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Three</td>
<td>Four</td>
</tr>
</table>The same table with bgcolor (background color) tags added:
One Two Three Four <table border="1" cellpadding="25">
<tr>
<td bgcolor="#0000ff">One</td>
<td bgcolor="#00ff00">Two</td></tr>
<tr>
<td bgcolor="#0000ff">Three</td>
<td bgcolor="#ffff00">Four</td></tr>
</table>The same table with border="0" and cellspacing="0":
One Two Three Four <table border="0" cellpadding="25" cellspacing="0">
<tr>
<td bgcolor="#0000ff">One</td>
<td bgcolor="#00ff00">Two</td></tr>
<tr>
<td bgcolor="#0000ff">Three</td>
<td bgcolor="#ffff00">Four</td></tr>
</table>
