Attributes
The attributes for the <tfoot> tag are supported by HTML4.1 only but are now deprecated in HTML5. To get the same effect use CSS to style text-align and vertical align.
- align: The align attribute is used to set the horizontal alignment of the text content.
- valign: The valign attribute is used to set the vertical alignment of the text content.
- char: The char attribute is used to align the content in a cell based on a specific character.
- charoff: The charoff attribute is used to specify the number of characters offset for alignment based on the char attribute.
Note: The <tfoot> tag also supports the Global Attributes and Event Attributes in HTML.
