<CAPTION>
The CAPTION element is used to add a caption to an HTML table.
The caption may be any valid HTML that you want to appear alongside
the table and typically describes the type of information found in
the table.
The CAPTION tag is only valid immediately after an opening TABLE
tag. Each table may only have one CAPTION element associated with
it.
