The align property specifies the position of data in a variable field when the length of the data is smaller than the length of the field.
Although the align property affects the output of both character and numeric data, it affects the input of character data only. Numeric data is always right-justified on input.
The align property is not meaningful for a JSF Handler because the JSF API does not support it. You can specify alignment in the CSS for a control, where appropriate.
