HTML offers an easy way to organize information, or even design the flow of your entire page. The TABLE command involves a series of nested tags that control the rows, columns and cells that make up a table.
In this example, we made a simple table to display information.

|---|---|---|
| Mercury | 88 days | 59 days |

| Earth | 365 days | 24 hours |
| Mars | 687 days | 24.6 hours |

Using the method above, you can go one step further, and use a table as the framework for your entire page.
Frames are often useful, but many times also a problem. They are not easily
dealt with in formatting, and they are out of style and not coming back.
To add to all of this, they are impossible to make ADA compatible.
