Align footnote in htmlTable in R

Question

I am trying to create a table using htmlTable package in R and I find it difficult to align the footnote to the left bottom bottom of the table.

Below is the relevant code:

library(htmlTable)

# Create a sample matrix
output <-  matrix(rep(paste("xx (xx.x)"),times = 36), 
                  ncol=3, byrow = TRUE)

# Generate htmlTable outputs
tblOutput <- htmlTable(output,
                       header       =  c("Group A", "Group B", "Goup C"),
                       rnames       = paste0("Row name", 1:12),
                       css.rgroup   = "text-align: left; font-weight: 10;",
                       css.cgroup   = "line-height: 2px;",
                       css.tspanner = "font-weight: 10; text-align: left;",
                       caption      = "Title name",
                       tfoot        = "- Details about row name 1")

# Return table in html format
htmlTableWidget(tblOutput,number_of_entries = 10)

Thanks!

Answer 1

I finally found out that if tfoot = "- Details about row name 1" is replaced by the following:

"<div align='left'> Information about row name 1 </div>

It will actually work perfect.

Thanks!
