absmiddle is not a permitetd value of align in any standard version of
HTML. The permitted values are top, middle, bottom, left and right.

how can i align the text with the absolute middle of the image using only
css?

<p><img src="image.gif" width="20" height="40" style="vertical-align:
middle;" alt="" />some text</p>

From my experiments it looks like vertical-align: middle behaves more
like the non-standard align="absmiddle" than the standard
align="middle", so it seems to be exactly what you want. (Tested in
IE6, Opera 7.23 and Mozilla 1.5, note that in the last two
align="middle" and align="absmiddle" display the same anyway - only IE
clings to the old Netscape 2(?) display).
