HTML <td> axis Attribute - GeeksforGeeks

HTML <td> axis Attribute

Last Updated : 12 Jul, 2025

The HTML <td> element's axis attribute provides a way to categorize or group table cell data, helping to describe the relationship between cells. It allows for improved accessibility and was mainly used for complex tables, but is now deprecated. Use CSS or ARIA for similar functionality.

Syntax

<td axis="category_name">

Attribute Values

category_name: It is used to specify the category name.

Example: In this example we demonstrate the axis attribute in <td> elements, assigning category information ("student_info") for table cells in a student data table.
