The big thing to read is the stuff in the CSS specifications about
style inheritance. You'll see that such properties as "text-align"
are inherited from the previous element.

IE6 simply supports this inheritence like a real object oriented
browser would, and condusive to the rest of the web standards.

If alignment is inherited, then all text alignment for objects
underneath it will be aligned that way - and in terms of
browser objects there can be no difference between:

<div align="center">

and 

<div style="text-align: center;">

.. can there?
