Align right in a table cell with CSS

I have the old classic code like this,

<td align="right">

which does what it says: it right aligns the content in the cell. So if I put two buttons in this cell, they will appear at the right site of the cell.

I was refactoring this to CSS, but there doesn't seem to be anything as right align. I see text-align, but is it that the same?

Solution

  • Use

    text-align: right

    The text-align CSS property describes how inline content like text is aligned in its parent block element. text-align does not control the alignment of block elements itself, only their inline content.

    See

    text-align

    <td class='alnright'>text to be aligned to right</td>

<style>
    .alnright { text-align: right; }
</style>
