Full Example of HTML Table Padding

Cell padding is the space between the cell edges and the cell content. By default the padding is set to 0. To add padding on table cells, use the CSS padding property:

index.html

Example: HTML

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<style>
table, th, td {
  border: 1px solid black;
  border-collapse: collapse;
}
th, td {
  padding: 15px;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>

<h2>Cellpadding</h2>
<p>Cell padding specifies the space between the cell content and its borders.</p>

<table style="width:100%">
  <tr>
    <th>Firstname</th>
    <th>Lastname</th> 
    <th>Age</th>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td>Jill</td>
    <td>Smith</td>
    <td>50</td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td>Eve</td>
    <td>Jackson</td>
    <td>94</td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td>John</td>
    <td>Doe</td>
    <td>80</td>
  </tr>
</table>

<p><strong>Tip:</strong> Try to change the padding to 5px.</p>
