align Describes the alignment of text in a table column. Allowable values

are: left Indicates left alignment of the text. right Indicates right alignment of the text. center Indicates center alignment of the text. justify Justifies the contents to both the left and the right. -dita-use-conref-target See Using the -dita-use-conref-target value for more information.

right | center | justify | char | -dita-use-conref-target) #IMPLIED No
char alignment character

Default source for entry elements starting in this column. If character alignment is specified, the value is the single alignment character source for any implied char values for entry immediately in this column. A value of "" (the null string) means there is no aligning character.


CDATA #IMPLIED No
charoff horizontal offset of alignment character when align=char

Default source for entry elements starting in this column. For character alignment on an entry in the column, horizontal character offset is the percent of the current column width to the left of the (left edge of the) alignment character.


This value should be number, greater than 0 and less than or equal to 100.


NMTOKEN #IMPLIED No
valign Indicates the vertical alignment of text in a table entry (cell).

Allowable values are: top Align the text to the top of the table entry (cell). bottom Align the text to the bottom of the table entry (cell). middle Align the text to the middle of the table entry (cell). -dita-use-conref-target See Using the -dita-use-conref-target value for more information.

rev Indicates revision level of an element. It is useful for flagging

outputs based on revision. If no value is specified, but the attribute is specified on an ancestor within a map or within the related-links section, the value will inherit from the closest ancestor.

CDATA #IMPLIED No
base A generic attribute that has no specific purpose, but is intended

to act as a base for specialized attributes that have a simple value syntax like the conditional processing attributes (one or more alphanumeric values separated by whitespace). The attribute takes a space delimited set of values. However, when acting as a container for generalized attributes, the content model will be more complex; that model is documented in the "attribute generalization" section of the DITA architectural specification.

CDATA #IMPLIED No
%id-atts; (id, conref) A set of related attributes, described at %id-atts; parameter entity PE not
