i know this and have read up on it.
Unlike CSS the html attribute align="center" should not be inherited
to child elements.

it is a bug.

no its wrong. you are wrong too! ner :)

and removing DTD's from a page to make something compatible with IE is certianly not 
good practise. i use a CUSTOM DTD on some pages of exotica (havnt done them all yet). 
There is other bugs with this with IE of it putting a horizontal frame scrollbar when 
not needed if you specify ANY dtd.

No other browsers act like this, and early betas of ie6 didnt either.
