Hi,
I tried the <.div align =center> solution, but that still didn't do it. I
think the problem is as Stephanie wrote:

I have a one cell table in a cell of a 6 cell table. The cells of the 6
cell table are set to align center, so I think the browser is trying to
center the text twice, in a sense, so left aligning it a little.

Well, this works, but I want to set the cell widths to be the same, so I've
turned off the cell width and used a spacer gif to fix it. Not elegant, but
I think it will work.
Thanks to all for setting me on track!
Best wishes,
Adrian
