Definition and Usage

The ch property sets or returns an alignment character for a table row.

The alignment of the contents of all cells in the same column depends on this character.

Return the ch property:

trObject.ch

Tip: There is no default value for the ch property.

Browser Support

The ch property is supported in all major browsers. However, the functionality of this property is not implemented in any of the major browsers.

Example

Align the "Savings" column to the "." character:

<html>
<head>
<script>
function displayResult()
{
var c=document.getElementById("myCol");
alert("The alignment character for the second column is: " + c.ch);
}
</script>
</head>
<body>

<table border="1">
<colgroup>
    <col>
    <col id="myCol" align="char" char=".">
</colgroup>
<tr>
    <th>Month</th>
    <th>Savings</th>
</tr>
<tr>
    <td>January</td>
    <td>$100.00</td>
</tr>
