1,836 PointsError Code Challenge Html ---->TABLE
Hi everybody. I have a problem with the code challenge about the "tables". I don't undestand why I am doing it wrong.
The task is: "Add a table heading tag to the table you just created."
That's what I wrote:
<table>
<tr>
<th> </th>
</tr>
</table>
When I check the result is: "Bummer! Try adding a table heading tag inside of the table." I posted only what I wrote, I didn't modify the other tags on the page, so everything is fine. Can somebody explain to me what I'm doing wrong? Thank you very much.
[[ed. note]] Added markdown to fix code formatting

The later is for sectioning content using <thead> <tbody> and <tfoot>. Whereas <th> is for naming columns.
