When adding <label for="tag">caption</label> to an existing
form, the caption does not show.  The form uses cols and
align right. The example given, removing either the cols
or the align right will "fix" the problem.  However, this is
but one instance in which the label mechanism is broken.  I
have more complicated forms that break with any significant
combination of align and/or cols attributes.  Note that removing
all cols="2" attributes doesn't solve the problem in the
complicated case.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create a form with a table a text area and a label
2. Set cols="2" for the table or set align="right" for a column
3. View in browser

Actual Results:  Labels are not shown when cols="2" is added 
to the table attributes or when align="right" is
set to the td.  Remove either of these and
the label shows... 

Expected Results:  Labels are shown.

<html>
    <body>
        <form enctype="multipart/form-data" method="post">
            <table cols="2" >
                <tr>
                    <td align="right">
                        <label for="given">First:</label></td>
                    <td>
                        <input type="text" name="given"  id="given" />
                            </td></table></form></body></html>
