Does some FF3.1 dev version actually work roughly how we want with a text-align:right? When I try it in FF3.0.5 I get the issue that Giovanni was originally alluding to, where the "$" just sits next to the text of each cell, and is *not* aligned with the others. (Which is, honestly, a little weird, since the cells *are* all of uniform width, so one would naively expect the "$" to float all the way to the left of the cell, but they don't.) ~TJ
