<table>
<colgroup>
<col>
<col style='text-align:right'>
</colgroup>
<tbody>
<tr>
<td>Sample text</td>
<td>This text should be right-aligned</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td></td>
<td>
<div id='spacer' style='width:100px'>
I'm a spacer
</div>
</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
Results in text that isn't right aligned. If the same style is applied to the td
element it works fine. How do I right-align text in a column without having to apply a style to every td
element?
Add the following CSS:
table.tableClass tr td:nth-child(2) {
text-align: right;
}
the number after nth-child(
is the column, so for this case it would be 2 because it's the second column. Fiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/p97vdo2p/1/
HTML isn't rendered by column, it's rendered by rows. That's why there <tr></tr>
(table rows) exist, but <tc></tc>
(table columns) do not. That being said, the easiest way to style a column in HTML, is by applying the same CSS class to every <td></td>
in the given column. You can type in the same class to every one manually, or you could write it programmatically, via javascript or a server-side script.
