greetings!

i'm wondering if there is a way, within the org-mode table-formatting facilities, or within an org-mode css style block, to define text formatting on a per-column basis.
i.e. to make a table which, when exported to html, will have column A all center-aligned, column B all right-aligned, and column C all left-aligned.

it would, of course, be preferable to have the format definition somehow defined such that editing, removing, or adding rows to the table doesn't disturb the formatting -- i.e. anything added to column A becomes center-aligned, etc.

thanks, in advance, for any clues you may have!
cheers!

Hi Plutek,

I would like to have this too, but unfortunately many browsers ignore  
alignment specified for an entire column - you need to put the  
alignment into each field.  This was, so far, too annoying to implement.
