Adding Rows and Columns

You may find you need to add additional content to your table. Dreamweaver allows you to add rows or columns to your table, either singly or in multiples .

To insert a single row in a table:

1.
Place the insertion point in a table cell .

2.
In the Layout category of the Insert Bar, click either the Insert Row Above or Insert Row Below button ( Figure 9.17 ). A new row will appear above or below the row where the insertion point is.

Figure 9.17. You'll use the Layout category of the Insert Bar to make changes to tables.


or

Choose Insert > Table Objects > Insert Row Above.

or

Choose Insert > Table Objects > Insert Row Below, or press Ctrl-M (Cmd-M).

or

Right-click in the cell, and choose Insert Row from the shortcut menu. This adds a row below the row where the insertion point is.

The row appears in your table ( Figure 9.18 ).

Tip

  • If the insertion point is in the last cell of the table, pressing Tab adds a row to the bottom of the table.

1.
Place the insertion point in a table cell.
