[xep-support] Still problem with centering a table horizontally on a page

[Powell, Todd]

I've seen reference to this problem throughout the forum, and tried the
suggested solution below:
<table width="100%"> 
   <table-column column-width="proportional-column-width(1)"/> 
   <table-column/> 
   <table-column column-width="proportional-column-width(1)"/> 
   <table-body> 
      <table-cell column-number="2"> 
         <table table-layout="fixed"
inline-progression-dimension="100%">
	content of table that's to be centered
         </table> 
      </table-cell> 
   </table-body> 
</table> 

Using this technique, my desired table is centered on the page, but it
seems to take up only one third of the page, but only when I use '100%'
as the value for 'inline-progression-dimension'.  If I use '6in' as the
value, the table stretches out.  Having 100% is handy in that I don't
need to do any calculation based on whether the page is portrait or
landscape, or if the table is being rendered across the full page, or
within a column.

Can anyone explain how I might get this to work without performing a
calculation to transform '100%' into a fixed length?

Thanks in advance,
Todd
