Also, mozilla seems to ignore the aligments set via the same method for <th> elements. I think it happens even styles are applied inline (no case handy), so seems to be a general failure to apply styles to cols. Initially I thought I was doing something wrong, but it validates, is supported by the W3C specs, and works in every other V5+ browser. Having to apply a style to every table cell in a column would create unnecessarily bulky code, especially since it has support from the other popular browsers. OK, the page isn't pretty, but the colours have purpose! Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Go to a page with stlyles applied via columns. E.g. background colours. 2. 3. Actual Results: Columns have white background Expected Results: Columns have coloured backgounds. Applied colours from style sheet.
