Browser Support
The cellpadding attribute is supported in all major browsers.
Definition and Usage
The cellpadding attribute specifies the space, in pixels, between the cell wall and the cell content.
Note: Do not confuse this with the cellspacing attribute, which specifies the space between cells.
Tip: It may be better to NOT specify a cellpadding, and use CSS to apply padding instead.
Syntax
<table cellpadding="pixels">
