Input values for the table border, cell padding, and cell spacing if desired.
The Dynamic Table dialog box retains the values you enter for table borders, cell padding, 
and cell spacing. If you are working on a project that will need several dynamic tables 
requiring the same look, you may want to enter the table layout values, as this will further 
simplify page development. Note that you can adjust these values after inserting the table 
using the table Property inspector.

Click OK.
A table and placeholders for the dynamic content defined in its associated recordset are 
inserted into the page.
In this example, the recordset contains four records: FIRSTNAME, LASTNAME, 
TITLE, and DEPARTMENT. The table’s Heading row is populated with the names of 
each record item. You can edit the headings using any descriptive text you want, or replace 
them with representative images.
Creating a record counter 
Record counters let users know where they are within a given set of records relative to the total 
number of records returned. For this reason record counters are a useful behavior that can 
significantly add to the usability of a web page.

Creating a record counter using the Recordset
