What are the Table Headers & Caption and the importance to Webpages?

Hello Xavier,

Here I am going to show you header and caption in table for excel and web page. I think after reading you will get all information about it.

The header of a table signifies the key information about the entire row or column. In a simple table can holds a maximum number of one rowed header or one columned header. In a table title should use to describe about the entire work introduction that help to user to understand easily about the entire table. 

Headers usually use on the first row or column and usually show as bold and captions or titles are used on top of the table. It generally uses for many works of exes, statistical uses, survey use, to save a record of any calculation like salary, export, import, goods and data. See the below image.

For web page generally HTML table tags are used to describe the table and caption. In HTML header are generally kept between <th> </th> tag and data are kept in <td></td> tags under <tr> </tr> table tags for web page.

Best of luck.
