Markdown Tables with Alignment
Create tables with left, center, and right alignment
Markdown Source
| Left | Center | Right | |:-----|:------:|------:| | A | B | C | | 1 | 2 | 3 |
Rendered HTML Output
<table> <thead><tr><th align="left">Left</th><th align="center">Center</th><th align="right">Right</th></tr></thead> <tbody><tr><td>A</td><td>B</td><td>C</td></tr><tr><td>1</td><td>2</td><td>3</td></tr></tbody> </table>
Explanation
Tables use pipes (|) for column separators and dashes (-) for the header row. Add colons in the alignment row: :--- for left, :---: for center, ---: for right.
Tips & Common Mistakes
- Header row must be followed by a separator row. Some renderers require a leading/trailing pipe on every line.
