http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-CSS2/tables.html#q2 says that display: inline-table, relates to table elements when used for HTML, but the last paragraph of the same section says that authors should not change the display style for table related elements. This seems to introduce a partial contradiction. If inline-table should not be used for HTML tables, the reference to HTML TABLE elements ought to be removed from the definition of inline-table. The context of this is <http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/w3c-wai-ig/2001JanMar/0712.html>. Basically display: inline-table would appear to be the HTML Strict/CSS way of getting the effect of <table align="center"> (not that I'm a great fan of centring everything myself). "should not" has the specific sense defined in <ftp://ds.internic.net/rfc/rfc2119.txt> in the above. - --------------------------- DISCLAIMER --------------------------------- Any views expressed in this message are those of the individual sender, except where the sender specifically states them to be the views of BTS.
