Cellpadding is HTML padding, as specific to table cells.
The term 'cellpadding' goes back to the now-obsolete cellpadding attribute that was used to control this feature in older versions of HTML. This technique is now deprecated, and use of CSS to control layout is preferred. Therefore, one should use the CSS padding property rather than the cellpadding attribute.
