<TITLE>Still problem with centering a table horizontally on a page</TITLE>
</HEAD>
<BODY>
<!-- Converted from text/rtf format -->
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">I've seen reference to this problem throughout the forum, and tried the suggested solution below:</FONT>
<BR><FONT FACE="Times New Roman"><table width="100%"><BR>
<table-column column-width="proportional-column-width(1)"/><BR>
<table-column/><BR>
<table-column column-width="proportional-column-width(1)"/><BR>
<table-body><BR>
<table-cell column-number="2"><BR>
<table table-layout="fixed" inline-progression-dimension="100%"></FONT>
<BR> <FONT FACE="Times New Roman">content of table that's to be centered</FONT>
<BR><FONT FACE="Times New Roman"> </table><BR>
</table-cell><BR>
</table-body><BR>
</table><BR>
</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">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.</FONT></P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">Can anyone explain how I might get this to work without performing a calculation to transform '100%' into a fixed length?</FONT></P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">Thanks in advance,</FONT>
