Is the attribute align legal to use in HTML5?


Recently, I'm editing a website which is coded by previous worker. And I saw this

<div align="right"><table>...</table></div>

And this table is well aligned to the right. But I didn't see this align attribute on w3school. (It seems to be copied from Excel or Word.)

Is this attribute align legal to use in HTML5?


Solution

  • No in HTML5 align attribute is deprecated. Though, you can use style sheet text-align property.

    In case of deprecated valign attribute, you can use vertical-align property.

    Also, if you going to make flex box, use align-content property to align contents.
