{{APIRef("HTML DOM")}}{{deprecated_header}}

The align property of the {{domxref("HTMLTableRowElement")}} interface is a string indicating how to horizontally align text in the {{htmlelement("tr")}} table row. Individual cells can override it.

[!NOTE] This property is deprecated, and CSS should be used to align text horizontally in a cell. Use the CSS {{cssxref("text-align")}} property, which takes precedence, to horizontally align text in a row instead.

Value

The possible values are:

  • left
    • : Align the text to the left. Use text-align: left instead.
  • right
    • : Align the text to the right. Use text-align: right instead.
  • center
    • : Center the text in the cell. Use text-align: center instead.
  • justify
    • : Spread the text across the cell. Use text-align: justify instead.
  • char
    • : Never fully supported, align text to a specified character. Use text-align: <string>, where the string is a single character, when supported.

Examples

Use CSS text-align instead. An example is available on the {{cssxref("text-align")}} page.
