</table>What about the scopeattribute?The scopeattribute specifies the association of table cells and table row or column headers. It
is used to indicate whether a table cell is a header for a column (scope="col") or row
(scope="row"). An example of the code for the table in Figure 8.18 that uses this attribute is
shown below.
<table border="1" width="75%" summary="This table lists educational
background. Each row describes educational experience at a specific
school. Columns contain school attended, years, subject, and degree
awarded.">
