Last Updated :
22 Dec, 2023
The HTML <table> align Attribute is used to specify the alignment of the table and its content. Instead of the align attribute, CSS properties like margin and text-align are preferred for table alignment. For aligning content within table rows or cells, use the align attribute within <tr> and or apply CSS styles.
Note: This attribute is not supported by HTML5.
