# Contain Element
A JavaScript plugin to contain an element within its parent element.
## Features
* Pure JavaScript with no dependencies
* Configures the horizontal and vertical alignment of the contained element
* Can detect the native size or have it specified at runtime
## Usage
```
window.onload = function() {
containElement({
id: 'element', // the id of the element to be contained
width: '100', // (optional) element width in pixels (unset: element width)
height: '100', // (optional) element height in pixels (unset: element height)
valign: 'top', // (optional) vertical alignment: top|bottom (unset: middle)
halign: 'left' // (optional) horizontal alignment: left|right (unset: middle)
});
};
```
