I'd be interested to know if the popularity of the > align attribute has something to do with legacy RTL authoring habits. For p, and maybe div, would be align="justify". For img, * "right or left" when you want to put an image in a paragraph. Very common * "center" for some figures in between paragraphs. Though <center> was most likely to be used. * "bottom" because of Netscape shift in pixels, which triggered in most stylesheets the infamous img {vertical-align:bottom;} It may be informative to resample these documents (containing align attribute) and extract the attribute values. -- Karl Dubost - W3C http://www.w3.org/QA/ Be Strict To Be Cool
