Flot uses tables for layout without ensuring reset/overriding of default styles.

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Specify a default table style for the site (say, margins, padding,
border collapse, borders etc - typical stuff)
2. Try creating a float graph with a label.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Screwed up graph due to poor label styling.

Please provide any additional information below.

The workaround is to add extra styling for Flot's labels - what Flot should
be doing instead is resetting its styles and specifying them explicitly to
avoid default style issues.  Flot probably shouldn't be using a table there
either, but that's another matter.

Actually, this is somewhat on purpose. If I hardcode the styles into the table, 
you
won't be able to override them with CSS. If you can find a way to keep this 
property,
without borking up on your use case, I'm all ears.

If anyone feels like coming up with a patch, I think the easiest way around 
this is
to replace the table with styling with divs as kyberneticist suggests. The code 
is in
insertLegend, it could be a fun little job. :)

I'm going to classify it as an enhancement for now.
