hspace (HTML attribute)
| Depr. | Version |
|---|---|
| Yes | HTML 2 |
Syntax
hspace="surrounding horizontal space in pixels"
Description
When an applet is aligned left or right, text will flow around theapplet but with no space between it and the
applet. The hspace (and related
vspace) attribute
provides a bit of ‘breathing space’, but it will apply a space on both
sides of the applet which is not entirely
flexible.Example
The hspace
attribute set to "30" pixels around a left-aligned
applet:
<applet code="ticker.class" align="left" hspace="30"> </applet>
Value
A number representing the width of
spacing either side of the applet in
pixels.
Compatibility
Although support for this attribute is good, it’s now deprecated, and is highly presentational in its nature. The desired visual effects can all be achieved with CSS and, as such, this attribute shouldn’t be used—it’s presented here for informational purposes only.
