tr vAlign Property
tr Object
Definition and Usage
The vAlign property sets or returns the vertical alignment of the content within a table row.
Syntax
Set the vAlign property:
trObject.vAlign="baseline|bottom|middle|top"
Return the vAlign property:
trObject.vAlign
| Value | Description |
|---|---|
| baseline | Content is aligned to the baseline. The baseline is the "imaginary line" which most letters "sit" on, in a line of text. The baseline value sets the row so that all the table data share the same baseline. Often this has the same effect as the bottom value. However, if the fonts are in different sizes, baseline looks better. |
| bottom | Content is aligned to the bottom |
| middle | Content is aligned to the middle. This is default |
| top | Content is aligned to the top |
Browser Support
The vAlign property is supported in all major browsers.
Example
