I inherited a web app that has a structure like this:
table
  tr
     td
     td
     td
        table

The last table in that list was supposed to be right align, but no modifications to it’s TD parent will change that.  You can’t use align=”right” or text-align:right.

You need to use align=”right” on the TABLE that you want to be right aligned, not on its TD parent.

I know this is a bad idea as CSS is much better for aligning elements instead of nesting tables, but in this case I’m not going to rewrite the whole app layout for 1 thing.
