CSS table body is an essential part of HTML tables, serving as the parent element that holds the tbody element. It defines the table row group and structures the table’s contents, separating them from the table head or table header. This parent element also ensures proper formatting of tbody element entries, especially in complex tables with zero or more elements, such as td, tr, and tbody, that are styled using CSS for better layout and readability. The tbody element can include four columns, two columns, or second row groupings, and it defines the main body section of tabular data. Typically, the tbody acts as a direct descendant of the table, supporting proper vertical align, text align, and contextual information for assistive technologies. You can use border 1px solid for clean separation, apply font weight for emphasis, and style td tr elements directly or through selectors like nth of type. Additionally, td tr patterns that are immediately preceded by another element or condition can be fine tuned for responsive design. Remember, the end tag for tbody is often required but sometimes can be omitted with tag omission behavior, depending on how the tbody element and td tr structures are defined.
