# Table Character Offset (XHTML table model)

Use W3C documentation for the XHTML1.1 table model. (http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml-modularization/abstract_modules.html#s_tablemodule)

## Remarks

Horizontal offset from the alignment character specified by the @char attribute; the percent of the current column width to the left of the (left edge of the) alignment character.

Alignment on a particular character requires that three attributes be set in the document:

1. The @align attribute value is set to the word “ `char` ”.
2. The @char attribute value is set to the actual character to use for the aligning, for example, a decimal point, “ `.` ”.
3. The @charoff attribute value is set to the percent of the current column width to the left of the (left edge of the) alignment character, for example, “ `30` ”.
