Examples

The following code example demonstrates how to create an instance of an HtmlTable control with HtmlTableCell controls and place the table on the Web page. Note how the HtmlTableCell control's parameterless constructor is used to create a <td> element, while its overloaded constructor that takes a string parameter is used with the literal string "th" to create a <th> element.

Remarks

Use this constructor to create and initialize a new instance of the HtmlTableCell class. It allows you to create an HtmlTableCell object that represents a cell in an HtmlTable control. It is commonly used to create an HtmlTableCell object that represents a <th> element for a table heading cell. Although you can use this constructor to create a <td> element for a table data cell, you typically use the parameterless constructor.

Note

Although this constructor allows you to specify the cell element to create, the <th> element is the only supported cell element. For future compatibility, this constructor allows you to create other HTML cell elements that could become available.

The following table shows the initial property value for an instance of HtmlTableCell.

Property Initial Value
TagName The value of the tagName parameter.
