Syntax
align=" { left | center | right | justify } "
Description
The align
attribute affects the text content inside the h2,
aligning it to the "left", "right",
or "center", or setting it to
"justify" on the page.
This attribute is
deprecated. The correct method for aligning an h2 is to
use the CSS text-align property.
Example
The h2 below,
identified as a “latest,” will align the content inside the
h2 to the right (but as it’s identified with the
id attribute, CSS could—and should—be used to set
the alignment):
<h2 id="latest" align="right">Latest news on this site</h2>
Value
The accepted values for
h2 are "left",
"right", "center", and
"justify".
