HTML <td> align Attribute

Last Updated : 09 Jun, 2025

In HTML, the <td> (table data) element is used to define an individual cell within a table row (<tr>). It plays a crucial role in organizing and presenting structured data clearly. Whether displaying numerical values, text, or percentages—such as 85% for progress or success rates—the <td> tag helps format each piece of data in a readable, grid-like layout that enhances user understanding.

Syntax

<td align ="left | right | center | justify | char">

Attribute Values

The <td> align attributes have the following attributes which are as:

Attributes	Description
left	It sets the text left-aligned of a container.
right	It sets the text right-align of the container.
center	It sets the text center-align.
justify	It stretches the text of paragraph to set the width of all lines equal.
char	It sets the text-align to a specific character.
