Example
The h5 below,
identified as “page-credits,” will align the content inside the
h5 to the right (but as it is identified with the
id attribute, CSS could—and should—be used to set
the alignment):
<h5 id="page-credits" align="right">Credits for this page</h5>
Description
The align
attribute affects the text content inside the h5,
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 h5 is to
use the CSS text-align property.
Value
The accepted values for
h5 are "left",
"right", "center", and
"justify".
