HTMLTableCell class

The HTMLTableCell class takes any HTMLTagElement object as input and creates the table cell tag with the specified element. The element can be set on the constructor or through either of two setElement() methods.

Many cell attributes can be retrieved or updating using methods that are provided in the HTMLTableCell class. Some of the actions you can do with these methods are:

Get or set the row span
Get or set the cell height
Set whether the cell data will use normal HTML line breaking conventions

The following example creates an HTMLTableCell object and displays the tag:

    //Create an HTMLHyperlink object.
    HTMLHyperlink link = new HTMLHyperlink("http://www.ibm.com",
                        "IBM Home Page");
    HTMLTableCell cell = new HTMLTableCell(link);
    cell.setHorizontalAlignment(HTMLConstants.CENTER);
    System.out.println(cell.getTag());

The getTag() method above gives the output of the example:
