In other words, you have to traverse the DOM and do it programatically, interating to each cell in each row that corresponds to _that_ column, then programatically manipulate the HTML contents of that cell(either by re-inserting HTML or using the DOM to insert elements or set attributes on existing elements).

You shouldn't have to know what the heck you're imitating when you propagate a style. Can't you just use cloneNode for this? Stay ignorant of the information in your code, IOW?
