table header

Top row text

A table header is the row or column in a table that labels the data below or beside it, distinguishing category names from the values they organize.

In spreadsheets and databases, headers typically appear in bold or shaded cells at the top of columns: The table header listed Name, Date, and Amount.

In HTML, the `<th>` element specifically designates header cells, which browsers render distinctly from regular data cells.
