There are numerous CSS rules that can be used to modify an HTML table. We will consider the most used of these.
1)Background color and color:
The property 'background-color' is used to set the color of the background of cells in a table. It can be used for the table header<th>, table data<td> and the whole table. The color of the text that appears in the cell is now altered with the property 'color'.
E.g
table{background-color:black;
color:white;
}

2)Border: When using tables to present tabular information, you may want to make the borders visible. This is so by default. You can still specify it though, and add the thickness and color of it.
E.g
table{border:1px black}
You can make the border invisible by setting the thickness to 0px.
NOTE:Make sure that you did not set the border thickness in the corresponding HTML file.

If you notice, the table by default, has a border for the table head<th>, table data<td> and the table itself. Most times, you will want to avoid this. In this case, the 'border-collapse' property comes to play.
Syntax:
table{border-collapse:collapse}

3)Dimensions:
You will never want to try setting up a table without specifying its dimensions. This is done by...the 'width' and 'height' properties, you guessed right.
table{width:250px
height:100px}
NOTE:The unit of the table dimensions can also be specified in %. With this, a table's dimension will be a certain percentage of another element. This will be discussed in full later in CSS Styling.

4)Alignment:
The text in different cells of a table can have their alignment altered with the following properties:
a)text-align: This is used to set the position of text in a cell, at the left, right or center.
b)v-align: This is used to specify the vertical postion of text. Top, bottom or center
E.g
th{
text-align:center;
v-align:bottom;
}

5)Padding:
When you pad something, you cushion its edges right? The same applies here. You can specify the amount of space between content in a cell and its borders with the padding property.
E.g
td{
padding:5px}
The rule above, would add 5px of padding at the top, right, bottom and left.

Now, lets check out a pictorial illustration of styling tables with CSS. The first image you shall see is an HTML table with no CSS styling. The image of the code to the table has been posted earlier, when treating HTML tables.

Now, consider this CSS style sheet.

Which will produce this:
