Vertical Table Alignment

Amphersand · #1 (**permalink**) Mar 8th, 2006, 22:57

Is it possible to set a tables vertical alignment to middle, without using css??? I need to centre a table verticaly aswell as horizontaly. Its only for a holding page and didnt want to go through much fuss. Have tried valign="middle" etc.

Cheers

You need to put a table inside a table to do this.

Code: Select all

<body>

<table>
<tr>
<td valign="middle">

<table>
<tr>
<td>All your content</td>
</tr>
</table

</td>
</tr>
</table

</body>

Cheers guys - have tried a table in a table. Unfortunatley adding valign to the table data/cell of the outer table doesnt seem to align the table inside. Im aware i cant use the valign attribute with the <table> tag.
Any other suggestions???

Cheers

Well have you tried that?

Sorted this out with a div tag and a wrapper - i confess to not having a clue how it works, a friend sent me the code and told me what to do!

Thanks all anyway.

Cheers

if you had set a height of 100% to your outer table, the original suggestion would have worked, but you've sorted it anyway, so it's ok.
