There isn't much in it, but I'd say the former. Both DIV and TABLE have the 
align attribute in XHTML 1.0 Transitional, and neither has it in XHTML 1.0 
Strict (see http://aamcf.co.uk/html/). Both are deprecated, but the latter 
can cause some oddness in IE 6.

http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/index/attributes.html is probably what you are 
looking for.
