According to this:
<http://www.velocityreviews.com/forums/t156512--css-replacing-ltimg-alignquotabsmiddlequotgt.html>

"absmiddle is not a permitetd value of align in any standard version of
HTML. The permitted values are top, middle, bottom, left and right."

You might also consider correcting the errors on the page:
