Table alignement bugs (td th used with span)

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?

The are some table alignement/width issus when you try to have fixed widths
for the tables cells (like the demo elements.html)

To view the problem :

<div class="span-8">
<table summary="Width problem test"  border="0" cellspacing="0"
cellpadding="0">
<caption><em>Width problem test</em></caption>
<tr>
<th class="span-4">span 4</th>
<th class="span-4 last">span 4</th>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>* 145px *</td>
<td>145px</td>
</tr>
</table>

<table summary="Width problem test"  border="0" cellspacing="0"
cellpadding="0">
<caption><em>Width problem test</em></caption>
<tr>
<th class="span-4">span 4</th>
<th class="span-2">span 2</th>
<th class="span-2 last">span 2</th>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>* 142px *</td>
<td>* 66 *</td>
<td>* 57 *</td>
</tr>
</table>
</div>

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

If you compare the 2 tables in the example, you'll see the alignement &
width problems.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
Blueprint 0.7.1

Hope the solution will come soon !
