Centering Table data

autopost · Jan 9, 2008

Hi 
 
I would like table data to be aligned to the center. I know that I can keep typing: 
 
<td align="center"> 
 
for every table cell, but thought there must be an easier way than this. I've tried styles using this: 
 
td {align: center;} 
 
and 
 
td {text-align: center;} 
 
but neither have worked, any help would be most appreciated!<td width="33%">

</td> Back in 1997 the "width" attribute was depricated for all but the IMG element and the "align" attribute depricated for all but TH and TD elements.
