valign
Vertical Alignment (NISO JATS table model)
Sets the vertical alignment inside a table cell. (This attribute is based on and
intended to be converted easily to the XHTML valign attribute.)
Remarks
Within a NISO JATS table (based on and designed to be converted easily to the XHTML 1.1
table model), this attribute specifies the vertical position of data within a table cell, for example, flush to the top of the cell.
Used on these Elements:
Value | Meaning |
---|---|
baseline | All cells in the same row as a cell whose @valign attribute has this value should have their textual data positioned so that the first text line occurs on a baseline common to all cells in the row. This constraint does not apply to subsequent text lines in these cells. |
bottom | Cell data is flush with the bottom of the cell. |
middle | Cell data is centered vertically within the cell. |
top | Cell data is flush with the top of the cell. |
Restriction | @valign is an optional attribute; there is no default. |
