[thelist] Image labels not centered in Firefox

Dear Experts,

(Sorry, this question was previously posted with an EXE. Here's the same page as a static page:

Please look at http://65.209.2.12/alignment_problem.htm
 -- specifically the bottom row of the gray area.

In IE6/Windows the company names are centered under their logos, as desired, but in FF 1.0 Windows and Netscape 7 Windows the names are left-aligned in the table cells, although the logos are centered. How come? Does the <br> interfere with the centering inside a cell? (I'm using the transitional doctype.)

The relevant code is (edited for clarity):


<table width=100% cellspacing=0 cellpadding=0>
<tr>

<td style='text-align=center;'>
   <a href='something'>
      <img src='/somepath/logo-naa.gif' border=0 align=top>
   </a>
   <br>North American<br>Aviation
</td>

...same for other three cells...

</tr>
</table>


I've tried change the "align" attribute of the <img> to left, right, and bottom, but the text is still aligned left.

Thanks in advance for any advice! (Please, no flames about using tables! I know, I know...)
