You may have noticed that there are no options for putting the caption below and to the right or below and to the left. MSIE recognizes a
VALIGN attribute but not Netscape. If you want to put the caption on the bottom to the right or left you can use styles:

produces this |
<CAPTION
ALIGN=BOTTOM STYLE="text-align:right">

Technically, ALIGN is deprecated by W3C, though they don't give any explanation for why it is deprecated.
