To the viewer, a table is made up of rows and columns. However, the browser renders the html from top to bottom, left to right, so there is no tag for a column. There is the <table> tag, then rows <tr>, then the table data <td>.
If you would like column headings, the items on first row can use the tag <th> (table heading) instead of <td> (table data).
Here is an example of a table:
<!doctype html> <html> <head> <meta charset="utf-8"> <title>Acronyms</title> </head> <body> <table> <tr><th>Acronym</th><th>Meaning</th></tr> <tr><td>CSS</td><td>Cascading Style Sheets</td></tr> <tr><td>SQL</td><td>Structured Query Language</td></tr> <tr><td>PHP</td><td>Hypertext Preprocessor</td></tr> </table> </body> </html>
