How to left align elements in a jqmath table

Question

If I try to create a table in jqmath , it always centers the elements. So if I write

$$\table a , b ; c , dddddddddddd ;$$

then I get

a          b
c    dddddddddddd

How do I make jqmath align the columns to the left, so that the table is displayed as

a    b
c    dddddddddddd

Answer 1

All you need to do is style the appropriate tags.

<style type="text/css">
mtd, .fm-mtd  {
    text-align:left;
}
</style>

This is demonstrated in the following fiddle .

jqMath behaves differently on differing browsers. By default, Chrome displays the text using left alignment, whereas Firefox displays the text using center alignment. Chrome uses <td class="fm-mtd"> while Firefox uses <mtd> . The tag used depends upon whether the web browser supports MathML .
