It seems you are both agreeing and disagreeing with <center> being implemented as "text-align:block-center". Do you thing that would be a good solution? Or do you agree with "text-align:block-center" but not with "text-align:true-center"? -----Original Message----- From: fantasai [mailto:fantasai.lists@inkedblade.net] Sent: Tuesday, January 22, 2008 10:58 AM > A.

It should only be affecting inline content. If we want a property for aligning blocks, it should be a separate property. Aligning the block one way and the inline content another is very common. ~fantasai
