I get 

<colgroup><col align="left" /><col align="left" /><col align="right" />
</colgroup>

as expected.

In Opera it works for me, if I remove the styles for `td' from my
stylesheet.  The styles for table data cells will overrule the align
attribute in the col tag.

Current Firefox seems to ignore the align attribute, although it's valid
XHTML.


The only save way to get the alignment right would be to use a "style"
attribute for each and every table cell directly:

   <td style="text-align:right">....
