In response to an earlier post of mine David Woolley said: >I've never understood the obsession with centring text on web pages, but >columns of figure should never be centred; they should be decimal >point aligned, which, without style sheets, probably means right >aligned. If my figures have differing numbers of decimal points e.g 35.67% and 99.99999% then aligning right will not produce the desired result. I have tried <td align="char" char="."> but this doesn't seem to work (IE 5.5). All references that I can find quote this usage as correct. Has anybody any ideas? thanks Julian Julian Scarlett Web Design & Document Management System Officer PPU Education Directorate Sheffield City Council 0114 2735721 mob 07904914976 julian.scarlett@sheffield.gov.uk The information in this email is confidential.
