Michel,

My default stylesheet has td text-align:left because that's the 90% case. If I need centered or right aligned I override the setting for the specific element typically with a right-align or center-align class (or element style if you have to).

Not specifying text-align: left causes a lot of problems as the setting otherwise is 'inherit'. If the table's outer element has text-align: center all columns in the table will center which is surely not what you want.

In my standard CSS file I have:

td
{
    text-align: left;
    vertical-align: top;
    padding: 4px;
}
table.grid>tbody>tr>td
{
	border: solid 1px lightgrey;	
}
th
{
	font-weight: bold;
	text-align: center;
}

Hope that helps,
