WFM in MSIE, Opera, doesn't work with Gecko browsers. Using CSS text-align doesn't work either. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Create a table with a col giving it align="center" OR: CSS text-align: center Actual Results: The column contents are aligned left (the default). Expected Results: The column contents are centered. This helps writing less code and more semantic code.
I modified the W3 sample table (see URL) and added CSS text-align to demonstrate that the CSS approach doesn't work either.
