'vertical-align'
Value: baseline | sub | super | top | text-top | middle | bottom
| text-bottom | <percentage> | <length> | inherit
Initial: baseline
Applies to: inline-level and 'table-cell' elements

Since a div is display: block by default it is neither inline-level
nor display: table-cell, so the property doesn't apply.
