This bug is on the Netscape 20000922_BRANCH and trunk: 1. Start composer. 2. Click on the insert table button on the toolbar, and create a table of any size. 3. Add some text in the first cell of the table. 4. Double click on the first cell to bring up the table properties dialog. 5. If the "Cell" tab is not active click on the "Cell" tab to make it active. 6. Now click the "Cell Style" checkbox, and select "Header" from the pulldown next to it. 6. Now click the "Horizontal" checkbox, and select "Left" from the pulldown next to it. 7. Click the "OK" button. Notice how the text in the first cell now looks like a table header, but it is still centered? It should be left aligned. This is happening because SetAlign() in EdTableProps.js expects the default value for alignment for TD and TH to be the same ... but they aren't. Default alignment for TD is left, and default for TH is centered.

candidate for release notes: unable to left-align data in a cell formatted as a header; workaround is to use HTML Source View and fix it there. :-(

What a pain! Must make attribute setting smarter to know if cell is TD or TH
Default of "center" for TH and "left" for TD is respected when reading and writing the alignment attribute.
