CSS Table Alignment
Horizontal Alignment
The text-align property sets the horizontal alignment (like left, right, or center)
of the content in <th> or <td>.
By default, the content of <th> elements are center-aligned and the content of <td> elements are left-aligned.
To center-align the content of <td> elements as well, use text-align: center:
| Firstname | Lastname | Savings |
|---|---|---|
| Peter | Griffin | $100 |
| Lois | Griffin | $150 |
| Joe | Swanson | $300 |
To left-align the content, force the alignment of <th> elements to be
left-aligned, with the text-align: left property:
| Firstname | Lastname | Savings |
|---|---|---|
| Peter | Griffin | $100 |
| Lois | Griffin | $150 |
| Joe | Swanson | $300 |
Vertical Alignment
The vertical-align property sets the vertical alignment (like top, bottom, or middle)
of the content in <th> or <td>.
By default, the vertical alignment of the content in a table is middle (for both <th> and <td> elements).
The following example sets the vertical text alignment to bottom for <td> elements:
| Firstname | Lastname | Savings |
|---|---|---|
| Peter | Griffin | $100 |
| Lois | Griffin | $150 |
| Joe | Swanson | $300 |
