    I have an DOCX template with one variable that I replace by an HTML table. The variable is centered at the DOCX document:

    ------------------------------------------
    |            {MY_TABLE}           |
    |                                           |
    ------------------------------------------

    After I run $docx->replaceVariableByHTML('HTML', 'block', $myTable) and generate the DOCX document the table is not center aligned. I also tried with no luck:

    1. Add "align=center" to table.
    2. Wrap the table with "<center>" tag.
    3. Wrap the table with "<div style="width:100%; text-align: center;>"

     

    So, what am I doing wrong? How can I achieve HTML table centering?
    Thank u!

    Hello,

    This is a sample of how to center a table (you can test it with the file TemplateHTML.docx included in the package):

    <?php

require_once 'classes/CreateDocx.inc';

$docx = new CreateDocxFromTemplate('examples/files/TemplateHTML.docx');

$docx->replaceVariableByHTML('CHUNK_1', 'block', '<table align="center"><tr><td>AAA</td><td>AAA</td></tr><tr><td>BBB</td><td>BBB</td></tr><tr><td>CCC</td><td>CCC</td></tr></table>', array('parseDivsAsPs' => true));

$docx->createDocx('output');

    It's tested and working as expected.

    Regards.
