The CSS caption-side property is used to specify where a caption will be positioned with regards to the table (i.e. above or below the table).

Syntax:   caption-side: <value> Possible Values:  

* top
* bottom
* inherit

Initial Value: Top Applies to:
Tables with a caption Inherited: Yes
Media: Visual Example:

caption { caption-side: bottom;
width: auto; text-align: left; }

<style type="text/css">
caption {
  caption-side: bottom;
  width: auto;
  text-align: left;
  }
</style>
<table border="1">
  <caption>This is the caption</caption>
  <tr>
    <td>Try changing the values to see the effect it has on the position of the caption.</td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td><b>Note:</b> If this is not working, your browser might not support the caption-side property. At the time of writing, browser support for the caption-side property was limited.</td>
  </tr>
