the world wide web consortium (aka w3c) maintains the ratified specification for the <table> tag along with documentation on its relationships to linking more broadly defined here http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/struct/tables.html

index.html keeps another interactive document that provides help in using the <table> tag at http://www.blooberry.com/indexdot/html/tagpages/t/table.htm

Warning: 
Much of the work with tables is being supplanted by work done with Cascading Style Sheets (CSS). Although not all browsers fully support CSS, it is the case that the future of tables is dim and the future of CSS is bright.
