Re: [xwiki-users] Table Alignement

Vincent, I apologize. I didn't mean to be unrespectfull, it's not my style (since we're talking about styles :) ). But...it usually takes longer to hit a db, write some sqls and get the expected result than to write align="center", or any style property, but that's not the point. The css I use is colibri.css through a style.css include statement. Strange thing is that despite I am writing this in my script: (% style="background-color:red;align:center" %) The html code produced at the end is : <table style="background-color: red;"> Where the align attribute is simply removed. Also, some <tbody> tags are added. What I meant by locked is the following: why simple html like this: "<table align="center"><tr><td>test centering</td></tr></table>" Cannot be rendered according to W3C standard? I haven't been through the details of xwiki rendering but it looks like xwiki css defines styles for at html element level (i.e for all table, all h1, etc.. for instance .table { text-align: left}) So basically, a custom table (any table) falls under the rules of theses xwiki css. If you had defined a .xwikitable set of attributes instead, then the style would only apply to a table using class="xwikitable" and a custom table would follow whatever style was defined by the web developper. Anyway, I just tried that margin trick I found on a forum and that you just gave me. It works fine. Again, I didn't mean to show any lack of respect. I was just a bit frustrated. That happens. But you could concede me that xwiki documentation is not well structured and organized, both in its content and presentation. I know it's a challenge, a daunting task, but at some point it's necessary.
