Aligning tables

You can indicate how a table aligns on the web page in relation to elements, such as text or
images, around it on the page.
You cannot select an alignment option when you create a table. You must insert the table (see
"Inserting a table on a page" on page 81), then change the alignment option in table properties.
To change alignment for a table:
In your draft, select the table you want to change alignment for (see "Selecting table elements"

on page 83).
Do one of the following to open the Table Properties dialog box:

The Table Properties dialog box appears.
