there is a caption tag in the table that I wanted to be right aligned. I tried
using an html property to align it, it wouldnt work. I was a bit worried because
I wanted to use caption for accessability reasons, however, a css and class
assignment was successful in aligning the data.

This will not work because it is not valid html and there are a lot of problems.
I ran it through the W3C validator here: http://validator.w3.org/detailed.html

There is no valign or halign property in html 2.0, 3.2 or 4.1.

And it doesn't work in Opera or IE either.
