HTMLTableSectionElement: vAlign property
Deprecated: This feature is no longer recommended. Though some browsers might still support it, it may have already been removed from the relevant web standards, may be in the process of being dropped, or may only be kept for compatibility purposes. Avoid using it, and update existing code if possible; see the compatibility table at the bottom of this page to guide your decision. Be aware that this feature may cease to work at any time.
The vAlign property of the HTMLTableSectionElement interface is a string indicating how to vertically align text in a <thead>, <tbody> or <tfoot> table section. Individual rows and cells can override it.
Note:
This property is deprecated. Use the CSS vertical-align property to horizontally align text in section cells instead.
Value
The possible values are: "top", "middle", "bottom", or "baseline"
top-
Align the text to the top of the cell. Use
vertical-align: topinstead. center-
Vertically center the text in the cell. Synonym of
middle. Usevertical-align: middleinstead. middle-
Vertically center the text in the cell. Use
vertical-align: middleinstead. bottom-
Align the text to the bottom of the cell. Use
vertical-align: bottominstead. baseline-
Similar to
top, but align the baseline of the text as close to the top so no part of the character is outside of the cell.
Examples
Use CSS vertical-align instead, which takes precedence, as demonstrated in the vertical alignment table cells example.
