The HTMLTableCellElement
interface provides special properties and methods (beyond the regular HTMLElement
interface it also has available to it by inheritance) for manipulating the layout and presentation of table cells, either header cells (<th>
) or data cells (<td>
), in an HTML document.
Inherits properties from its parent, HTMLElement
.
HTMLTableCellElement.abbr
A string that can be used on <th>
elements (not on <td>
), specifying an alternative label for the header cell. This alternate label can be used in other contexts, such as when describing the headers that apply to a data cell. This is used to offer a shorter term for use by screen readers in particular; and is a valuable accessibility tool. Usually, the value of abbr
is an abbreviation or acronym, but can be any text that's appropriate contextually.
HTMLTableCellElement.cellIndex
Read only
A number representing the cell's position in the cells
collection of the <tr>
the cell is contained within. If the cell doesn't belong to a <tr>
, it returns -1
.
HTMLTableCellElement.colSpan
A positive number indicating the number of columns this cell must span; this lets the cell occupy space across multiple columns of the table. It reflects the colspan
attribute.
A DOMTokenList
describing a list of id
of <th>
elements that represent headers associated with the cell. It reflects the headers
attribute.
HTMLTableCellElement.rowSpan
A positive number indicating the number of rows this cell must span; this lets a cell occupy space across multiple rows of the table. It reflects the rowspan
attribute.
HTMLTableCellElement.scope
A string indicating the scope of a <th>
cell. Possible values for scope
are: col
, colgroup
, row
, rowgroup
, or the empty string (""
).
No specific method; inherits methods from its parent, HTMLElement
.
Warning: These properties have been deprecated and should no longer be used. They are documented primarily to help understand older code bases.
HTMLTableCellElement.align
Deprecated
A string containing the value of the align
attribute, if present, or empty string if not set. It can be used to set the alignment of the element's contents to the surrounding context of "left"
, "right"
, and "center"
. Use the CSS text-align
property instead.
HTMLTableCellElement.axis
Deprecated
A string containing a name grouping cells in virtual. It reflects the obsolete axis
attribute.
HTMLTableCellElement.bgColor
Deprecated
A string containing the background color of the cells. It reflects the obsolete bgColor
attribute.
HTMLTableCellElement.ch
Deprecated
A string containing one single character. This character is the one to align all the cells of a column on. It reflects the char
and defaults to the decimal points associated with the language, e.g., '.'
for English, or ','
for French. This property was optional and was not very well supported.
HTMLTableCellElement.chOff
Deprecated
A string containing an integer indicating how many characters must be left at the right (for left-to-right scripts; or at the left for right-to-left scripts) of the character defined by HTMLTableCellElement.ch
. This property was optional and was not very well supported.
HTMLTableCellElement.height
Deprecated
A string containing a length of pixel of the hinted height of the cell. It reflects the obsolete height
attribute.
HTMLTableCellElement.noWrap
Deprecated
A boolean value reflecting the nowrap
attribute and indicating if cell content can be broken into several lines.
HTMLTableCellElement.vAlign
Deprecated
A string representing an enumerated value indicating how the content of the cell must be vertically aligned. It reflects the valign
attribute and can have one of the following values: "top"
, "middle"
, "bottom"
, or "baseline"
. Use the CSS vertical-align
property instead.
HTMLTableCellElement.width
Deprecated
A string specifying the number of pixels wide the cell should be drawn, if possible. This property reflects the also obsolete width
attribute. Use the CSS width
property instead.
