Description[edit source]
It is to left align elements on a page. The only parameter is the content to be aligned. See also Template:Align for more options and flexibility.
Usage[edit source]
- Note: If you trying to align a table column (left, center, or right) use Template:Table alignment.
With no input arguments, it saves typing the following text (in a table):
style="text-align:left"|
To use, type {{left}}
at the start of the table cell.
With an input argument, it saves typing:
<div style="float:left;">...</div>
To use, type {{left|content}}
to align contents.
