The <tfoot> Tag in HTML 5

The <tfoot> tag is used to create a table footer in HTML. For example, the footer can include a total of the numerical values in a column or some other column summary for non-numerical columns. When the table spans multiple pages, such as when a large table on a web page is printed, the table footer code within the tfoot element will appear on each page below the table body.

This is an actual working demo of the table footer example code below. (Do View Source to verify that this page is using the HTML 5 DOCTYPE. You can also verify it is Valid HTML 5 using the HTML Validator. Try using it to validate URLs with HTML examples from other places that claim to be HTML 5 web sites!)

See the tutorial on Creating HTML Tables for full details on how to create an HTML table using the HTML table tags together.
