I am trying to find code for a likert scale in HTML. I have three questions:

  1. I want it to say - Not Guilty on the left and Very Guilty

  2. I want it to say - A lot of Damage on the left and No Damage on the Right

  3. I want it to say - Not Certain on the left and Very Certain on the Right.

    Does anyone know how to code this?

Here's a simplified version of Bill's answer. You don't need to class each individual li if you put it on the whole ul. I'd definitely agree that this is not the appropriate or semantic use of the table element. This is a list of answers.

<!-- begin snippet: js hide: false --> <!-- language: lang-css -->
.likert li {
  float: left;
  list-style-type: none;
}
<!-- language: lang-html -->
<ul class="likert">
  <li> Not Guilty </li>
  <li><input type="radio" name="guilty" value="1" /></li>
  <li><input type="radio" name="guilty" value="2" /></li>
  <li><input type="radio" name="guilty" value="3" /></li>
  <li><input type="radio" name="guilty" value="4" /></li>
  <li><input type="radio" name="guilty" value="5" /></li>
  <li> Very Guilty </li>
</ul>
<!-- end snippet -->
