Re: XSLFO fo:table-column alignment

You will have to specify

           text-align="from-table-column('text-align')"

as well for the cells to get the value from the table columns (since the
value cannot be inherited in the normal way as the fo:table-columns do NOT
have any children as you correctly observe). See 5.5.4 in the January 12
Draft for a definition of the function.

oh, are they? sorry, I missed that. even though <table-column> does
NOT have children?

no. I was not thinking. "text-align" is fine.

are you telling me that <table-column text-align="center"/> is legal
now, and does what I want?
