Remarks

Valid tags within the TFOOT element include:

• TH
• TR

Only one tFoot can be specified for any given table object.

The table object and its associated elements have a separate table object model, which uses different methods than the general object model. For more information on the table object model, see How to Build Tables Dynamically.

This element is not rendered.

This element requires a closing tag.

Example

This example uses the TFOOT element with the TABLE, TBODY, TD, and TR elements to create a table with the first row in the table body and the second row in the table footer.

<TABLE>
<TBODY>
<TR>
<TD>
This text is in the table body.
</TD>
</TR>
</TBODY>
