Class HTMLTableCaption

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    HTMLConstants, HTMLTagElement, java.io.Serializable


    public class HTMLTableCaption
    extends HTMLTagAttributes
    implements HTMLConstants, java.io.Serializable
    The HTMLTableCaption class represents an HTML Caption tag.

    This example creates an HTMLTableCaption object with an HTMLText object for the caption element.

      // Create an HTMLText object for the caption text.
      HTMLText captionText = new HTMLText("MY TABLE");
      // Create the HTMLTableCaption object with the new HTMLText object.
      HTMLTableCaption caption = new HTMLTableCaption(captionText);
      // Display the tag.
      System.out.println(caption.getTag());
      

    Here is the output of the tag:

      <caption>MY TABLE</caption>
      

    The equivalent tag using XSL Formatting Objects is:

      <fo:block><fo:block>MY TABLE</fo:block>
      </fo:block>
      

    This example creates an HTMLTableCaption object with an HTMLHyperlink object for the caption element.

      // Create an HTMLHyperlink object for the caption text.
      HTMLHyperlink companyLink = new HTMLHyperlink("http://www.myCompany.com", "My Company");
      // Create the HTMLTableCaption object with the new HTMLHyperlink object.
      HTMLTableCaption caption = new HTMLTableCaption(companyLink);
      caption.setAlignment(HTMLConstants.BOTTOM);
      // Display the tag.
      System.out.println(caption.getTag());
      

    Here is the output of the tag:

      <caption align="bottom"><a href="http://www.myCompany.com>My Company"</a></caption>
