I have a table inside a div, the table could be any width but the div is set
to 400px with auto overflow
my problem is that I want the table right aligned, if I use text-align in
IE8 it does not work, if I float the table right I get a hidden overflow

this is for a internal app and only really needs to work in IE8 but a cross
browser fix would be good to know.

any ideas?
