I am using style sheet (CSS2) left-margin: 50% and right-margin: 50% to center a
table. The <caption> element was displayed left justified, while the body of the
table was centered, as desired.  I've extracted the example and made a simple
web page showing the problem, at the url above

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. request above url
2. note that the caption is lert aligned, the table body centered.
3.



Expected Results:  
Caption should be centered with the table.

see http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS21/tables.html#q5, captions have their own margin so
one needs to specify them.
This is not a bug.  See comment #2 from Bernd.
It should be closed, I'm just not sure what the correct resolution status should be.
