HTML <tr> table row Tag Reference
The tr HTML tag means table row, and defines a row of data within a table
Use it in all tables.
The <tr> HTML/xHTML tag
Every table contains table row <tr> tags. They divide the contents of a table up into rows, which can contain table data cells <td> or table header cells <th>.
When to use the <tr> tag (semantic use)
Use the <tr> tag in all tables. Within the <thead> tag, it should normally contain only <th> tags. Within the <tbody> and <tfoot> tags, it may contain <th> or <td> tags.
Either the table head, body, or foot may contain one or more table rows.
It's valid in all current versions of HTML and xHTML, and it should always have a closing </tr> tag.
