Is it a caption for the table? If so, mark it up as a caption, and
not as a paragraph.

Then, in css, you have a couple of choices:
(1) use display: table-row and table-cell on the table and caption
element. Does not work with MSIE.
(2) assign a width to the table (sensibly, in flexible units for
text); then use position to place the caption. This can produce a
fragile layout that breaks in certain situations.
With a url, we might have a better idea of the situation, and perhaps
a better solution.
