Background-image property specifies the URL of the background image.
background-size: cover; ensures the background image covers the entire background.
background-repeat: no-repeat; prevents image repetition.
background-position: center; centers the image within the element.
Methods for incorporating a background image can vary based on desired appearance.

Key elements for creating tables include:
- <table>: Defines the table structure.
- <tr>: Defines a table row.
- <td>: Defines a table data cell.
- <th>: Defines a table header cell, often styled differently.

HTML Tables - Advantages

Organize and display data in rows and columns, making it easy to read and compare.
Content can be varied (text, images, links, etc).
Can be styled using CSS.
Accessible to assistive technologies.

Not as flexible for different screen sizes.
Poor semantic meaning.
Not ideal for layout.
