<colgroup> </colgroup>
PURPOSE: A tag to Defines groups of table columns. With this tag, you
can group columns for formatting.
Below is a basic html document. The referenced html tag is in RED. All tags must have a start and a end tag. Most end tags have a / before the tags name, however there are a few that are done differently. The tags that end differently will be noted and highlighted. The order of the start and end tags is also very important to proper display of your page in a web browser.
