Description Aryeh Gregor 2011-09-19 14:43:33 PDT 
Test case:

data:text/html,<!doctype html>
<quasit style="display:block" align=right>Test</quasit>

In IE9 and Firefox 8.0a2, the word "Test" is left-aligned.  In Chrome 15 dev and Opera 11.50, it's right-aligned.  The HTML specification says that align should only work on certain elements, like IE/Gecko:

I don't know what the exact list should be, though.  I didn't test what elements IE/Gecko respect it on.

Safari and Chrome match behavior here.
