Synopsis
ALIGN=”where"Optional
Determines how the caption is rendered in physical relation to the

VALIGN attribute), but the text is right-,
center-, or left-aligned in those positions. HTML 4.0 speaks of
left and right as meaning positioning the entire caption to the left or right of the table. If Internet Explorer were to adopt the HTML 4.0 specification in ...
