Identifies an entry in an HTML table.
This element is expected to obey the semantics described in Tables, as specified in XHTML 1.0 [XHTML].
Provides an abbreviated form of the cell’s content and may be rendered by user agents when appropriate in place of the cell’s content. Abbreviated names should be short since user agents may render them repeatedly. For instance, speech synthesizers may render the abbreviated headers relating to a particular cell before rendering that cell’s content.
Specifies the alignment of data and the justification of text in a cell.
Enumerated values: | |
---|---|
“left” | Left-flush data/Left-justify text. This is the default value for table data. |
“center” | Center data/Center-justify text. This is the default value for table headers. |
“right” | Right-flush data/Right-justify text. |
“justify” | Double-justify text. |
“char” | Align text around a specific character. If a user agent doesn’t support character alignment, behavior in the presence of this value is unspecified. |
May be used to place a cell into conceptual categories that can be considered to form axes in an n-dimensional space. User agents may give users access to these categories (e.g., the user may query the user agent for all cells that belong to certain categories, the user agent may present a table in the form of a table of contents, etc.). Please consult an HTML reference for more details.
Specifies a single character within a text fragment to act
as an axis for alignment. The default value for this attribute
is the decimal point character for the current language as set
by the lang
attribute (e.g., the period in
English and the comma in French). User agents are not required
to support this attribute.
When present, specifies the offset to the first occurrence
of the alignment character on each line. If a line doesn’t
include the alignment character, it should be horizontally
shifted to end at the alignment position. When charoff is used
to set the offset of an alignment character, the direction of
offset is determined by the current text direction (set by the
dir
attribute). In left-to-right texts (the
default), offset is from the left margin. In right-to-left
texts, offset is from the right margin. User agents are not
required to support this attribute.
Enumerated values: | |
---|---|
xsd:integer | An explicit offset |
xsd:string (Pattern:
“[0–9]+%”) | A percentage offset |
Assigns a class name or set of class names to an element. Any number of elements may be assigned the same class name or names. Multiple class names must be separated by whitespace characters.
Specifies the number of columns spanned by the current
cell. The default value of this attribute is one
(“1”). The value zero (“0”) means that
the cell spans all columns from the current column to the last
column of the column group (colgroup
) in
which the cell is defined.
Specifies the list of header cells that provide header
information for the current data cell. The value of this
attribute is a space-separated list of cell names; those cells
must be named by setting their id
attribute.
Authors generally use the headers
attribute
to help nonvisual user agents render header information about
data cells (e.g., header information is spoken prior to the cell
data), but the attribute may also be used in conjunction with
stylesheets.
Specifies the base language of an element’s attribute values and text content. The default value of this attribute is unknown.
Occurs when the pointing device button is clicked over an element.
Occurs when the pointing device button is double-clicked over an element.
Occurs when a key is pressed down over an element.
Occurs when a key is pressed and released over an element.
Occurs when a key is released over an element.
Occurs when the pointing device button is pressed over an element.
Occurs when the pointing device is moved while it is over an element.
Occurs when the pointing device is moved away from an element.
Occurs when the pointing device is moved onto an element.
Occurs when the pointing device button is released over an element.
Specifies the number of rows spanned by the current cell.
The default value of this attribute is one (“1”).
The value zero (“0”) means that the cell spans all
rows from the current row to the last row of the table section
(thead
, tbody
, or
tfoot
) in which the cell is defined.
Specifies the set of data cells for which the current
header cell provides header information. This attribute may be
used in place of the headers
attribute,
particularly for simple tables.
Enumerated values: | |
---|---|
“row” | The current cell provides header information for the rest of the row that contains it. |
“col” | The current cell provides header information for the rest of the column that contains it. |
“rowgroup” | The header cell provides header information for the rest of the row group that contains it. |
“colgroup” | The header cell provides header information for the rest of the column group that contains it. |
Specifies style information for the current element.
Offers advisory information about the element for which it is set.
Specifies the vertical position of data within a cell.
Enumerated values: | |
---|---|
“top” | Cell data is flush with the top of the cell. |
“middle” | Cell data is centered vertically within the cell. This is the default value. |
“bottom” | Cell data is flush with the bottom of the cell. |
“baseline” | All cells in the same row as a cell whose
