The HTML tag property align="center" is being depreciated, a fancy
way of saying no longer supported. This can be a problem if you want to
align a table in the center of the screen or use older software to write
web pages. It is recommended to use style sheets but a simple way is to
manually type the inline code styles, see the example below. If have found
that this method works with Mozilla Firefox, IE6, IE7, and IE8.
- Old Way:
- <table align="center">
- </table>
-
- Inline Code Style:
- <table style="margin-right: auto; margin-left: auto;>
</table>
-
- Using Styles:
- <style>
.tablecenter {
margin-right: auto;
margin-left: auto;
}
</style>
The style declaration should be placed in the head section of the page
or in the style sheet you are using for the website. The ".tablecenter"
defines the style as a class that can be used on multiple tables. To use
this style just define the table in the body of your html as below.
- <table class="tablecenter">
- </table>
