Hi!
When I put a table into a table and try to align it right, it works in IE
but not in Firefox.
Simplest code to reproduce:
<html>
<body>
<table style="width: 100%">
<tr>
<td style="width: 50%">
blabla
</td>
<td style="width: 50%; text-align:right;">
<table>
<tr><td>test</td></tr>
</table>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
</body>
</html>
How do I align it right "rightly". ;)

Usually when people describe a problem that way, it's in reality Firefox
that gets things right and IE wrong.
<td style="width: 50%; text-align:right;">
<table>
<tr><td>test</td></tr>
</table>
</td>
The text-align property affects, by CSS specifications, the alignment of
text lines inside the element. The inner table is a block element, so it is
not affected. The text-align property is inherited into the inner td so the
line ultimately gets aligned to the right, but only within its container,
the cell, and the width of the container is here just as much as needed for
it. IE, as so often, gets this wrong.

Using float: right as suggested by Els would be the technically appropriate
way, but what are you really trying to accomplish? It seems that you are
using tables for layout - nested tables are _mostly_ an indication of that.
Then you might just as well use <table align="right"> for the inner table.
Alternatively, you could try and implement the layout in CSS instead of a
mixed approach.

Yes, of course me and IE were wrong, that's why I asked how to do it right.

Yes, I'm using a table for layout... still an old vice. It's just one for
the overall layout of the page, but...
....probably I can also avoid even that.
I have one logo in the upper left corner, a box with a login form in the
upper right corner, the content in the middle and a footer line at the
bottom.
How does a correct CSS for that look like? Link?

As is using a table with one row and one column--that seems rather odd.

A table is a two-dimensional matrix of rows and columns (or even more
dimensions represented by a hierarchy of row and column headers and
subheaders). What do you think it means to have a table with one only
cell in it, as you do in your code?
<table>
<tr><td>test</td></tr>
</table>

Well, I could not imagine that it has any influence on the alignment of _the
table itself_, what is _in_ the table, so I used a table with only one cell.
You can also just set style="display: inline;" on the table. This will make the table act like text instead of its own block. That way if you want to center it later you can.

I rendering a PDF with XSLT using Xalan and FOP.
I like to place in my article an image, so that the text is floating

I am using FOP to create PDF documents.
I have the problem where I need to create line of text on a document in
a certain line (absolute position), then the rest of the text needs to
follow after that fixed line of text.
What I am getting is the fixed line of text starting at the correct
place, but then the rest of the text is then starting at the top of the
document.
