          <th>Table Header</th>
          <th>Table Header</th>
          <th>Table Header</th>


          </tr>
          <tr>
          <td>Table Cell</td>
          <td>Table Cell</td>
          <td>Table Cell</td>
          <td>Table Cell</td>
          </tr>
          <tr>

          <td>Table Cell</td>
          <td>Table Cell</td>
          </tr>
          </table>></div>




3.  In this procedure I am going to center the contents of  Blogger Blog table. This can be done in several methods but  going to take a short cut here by assigning a style to every table row of the table with good style and also going to ballet up our Blogger table by inserting alternating colored rows to improve readability and appearance. By far the easiest way to do this is to assign a class. For more information see the picture has given below:

<style type="text/css">.nobrtable br { display: none } tr {text-align: center;} tr.alt td {background-color: #FF0000; color: red;}</style><div class="nobrtable"> <table border="2" bordercolor="#FAAC58" style="background-color: #FAAC58" width="100%" cellpadding="3" cellspacing="3"><tr style="background-color: #D7DF01; color: #ffffff; padding-top:5px; padding-bottom:4px;">
          <th>Table Header</th>
          <th>Table Header</th>
          <th>Table Header</th>
          </tr>
          <tr class="alt">
          <td>Table Cell</td>
          <td>Table Cell</td>
          <td>Table Cell</td>
          </tr>
          <tr>
          <td>Table Cell</td>
          <td>Table Cell</td>
          <td>Table Cell</td>
          </tr>
          <tr class="alt">
          <td>Table Cell</td>
          <td>Table Cell</td>
          <td>Table Cell</td>
          </tr>
          </table>

4. Look at the above code change color of header and rows according your desire as you like. I have already discussed that change the colors and styles according your template design and you can change rows and color of headers and rows columns any time look at the table related with above code.
