valign doesn't work

[Reiner Wagner]

Hello,

the following html doesn't work:

<td valign="middle">
<H1>Test</H1>
</td>

The text "Test" doesn't appear in the middle of the cell.
If I don't use the tag H1 it works.

What can I do?

Thanks in advance,

Reiner

If I don't use the tag H1 it works.

What can I do?

Don't use layout tables?

You could try

h1 { margin: 0; }

Works for me. The h1 text is in the exact vertical middle of the cell, as it
is by default anyway.

Where is what you tried?

Do not use tables for laying out elements, to position elements.
