HTML table center / right justify

G

I need to figure out how to center, right justified data as shown in
the table below.

The price columns show right justification, and then centered data.

The only (work intensive) way that I can think of is to create a table
for each cell. Each table would contain 3 columns and 1 row. The
middle row would contain the price data and the 1st and 3rd column
would just be spacing to "center" the price.

Any acute htmlers know a simplier or more efficient way (less work
intensive). Maybe using CSS?

Thanks

Normally, prices are not 'centered', they are in fact right-justified
(or more correctly aligned on the decimal point, as your image seems to
be).

Bah! A complete table just for spacing?

CSS: .price { padding: 0 1em; text-align: right; }


HTML: <td class="price">$123.45</td>
