# TableHeader

Table headers are optional. But come on, you want them, don’t you? If you don’t want them, update the `content` attribute of the [`TableRow`](/api/nodes/table-row) extension, like this:

```js
// Table rows without table headers
TableRow.extend({
  content: 'tableCell*',
})
```

This is the default, which allows table headers:

```js
// Table rows with table headers (default)
TableRow.extend({
  content: '(tableCell | tableHeader)*',
})
```

## Installation
```bash
# with npm
npm install @tiptap/extension-table @tiptap/extension-table-row @tiptap/extension-table-header @tiptap/extension-table-cell

# with Yarn
yarn add @tiptap/extension-table @tiptap/extension-table-row @tiptap/extension-table-header @tiptap/extension-table-cell
```

This extension requires the [`Table`](/api/nodes/table), [`TableRow`](/api/nodes/table-row) and [`TableCell`](/api/nodes/table-cell) nodes.
