When I tried to use align="top" attribute in img element for xdocs xml (ie <img src="../../images/1920.gif" width="155" height="81" ALIGN="TOP" alt="1920s image"/>, I got the invalid error: Attribute "ALIGN" must be declared for element type "img". [49].

It doesn't validate because it is not allowed in our DTD. See http://forrest.apache.org/dtdx/document-v20.dtdx.html#img

The reason it is not allows is because this is layout information and should not be part of the source document but part of the CSS describing the layout.

To achieve what you want you will have to give your img element a class like this:

<img src="../../images/1920.gif" width="155" height="81"
alt="1920s image" class="topAligned"/>

Then in your skinconf.xml file add this class to the extra-css element, defining it as you require, for example:

img.topAligned { vertical-align:text-top }
