What is the difference between apex:dataTable and apex:pageBlockTable
PageBlockTable:
1) PageBlockTable should be define inside pageblock or pageblocksection.
2) PageBlockTable uses standard styles sheets to design a visualpage.
3) It has the required attribute “value”.
4) Column headers will be displayed automatically.
DataTable:
1) No need to write inside pageblock or pageblocksection.
2) There is no required value.
3) The data can be displayed using custom style sheets.
4) we need to specify column headers explicitly.
