</html>

Explanation:

  • This HTML document sets the border collapse to its initial value.
  • The CSS style block defines the style for the table with id "mytable" and its cells (td and th).
  • border-collapse:initial; specifies that the table border-collapse property should revert to its initial value.
  • border: 1px solid red; sets a red solid border with 1px width for the table, td, and th elements.
  • Inside the body, a table is defined with id "mytable" and three rows (tr) and two columns (th and td).
  • Table header cells (th) contain "First Name" and "Last Name" respectively.
  • Table data cells (td) contain names like "Jack", "Bell", "Peter", and "Jhon".
