HTML <tfoot> tag

HTML <tfoot> tag is used to define the set of rows which represents footer of an HTML table. The <tfoot> tag must contain one or more <tr> element.

The <tfoot> tag is used as a child element of HTML table (<table>) along with <thead> and <tbody> elements, where <thead> defines table header and <tbody> defines the table body.

Tips: The <thead>, <tbody>, and <tfoot> elements do not affect the table layout, and if you want to apply the change in table layout then use CSS properties.
