Vertical align in tables?

I'm having an object in a table and I'm unable to set vertical align (it doesn't seem to work).

Why is that?

Example:

Solution

  • When I give the td a height.. the content is vertical aligned in the middle....

    <table cellspacing="0">
    <thead>
        <tr>
            <th scope="col" style="width: 180px">Description</th>
            <th scope="col">Textarea</th>
        </tr>
    </thead>
    <tbody>
        <tr>
            <td height="400">Bla bla bla! Write something if you like! </td>
            <td>
                <textarea></textarea>  <span><img src="http://www.qualtrics.com/university/wp-content/plugins/wp-print/images/printer_famfamfam.gif" alt="printer"> A printer!</span>
            </td>
    </tbody>
