Property Value

Type: System..::.String
The vertical alignment of the content in the cells of a row in an HtmlTable control. The default value is String..::.Empty, which indicates that this property is not set.
Remarks

Use the VAlign property to specify the vertical alignment of the content in the cells of a row in an HtmlTable control.

NoteNote

Setting this property affects all cells in a row of a table represented by an instance of the HtmlTableRow class. To apply an alignment attribute to a single cell of a row, set the VAlign property for that cell.

The following table lists the values that can be used for this property.

Top

You can also use BaseLine as a value for this property. However, not all browsers support this feature.

Examples
