Of course.

I've looked at your examples, and am impressed at the different
behaviours that they exhibit.

However, I don't appreciate the *need* for all those extra
empty cells.

What is wrong with the following ?

<tr>
  <td align=right nowrap width="50%"><i>much longer left much longer left
much longer left</i>&nbsp;</td>
  <td align=center nowrap>&nbsp; = &nbsp;</td>
  <td align=left nowrap width="50%"><i>right</i></td>
  <td nowrap>(1.1)</td>
</tr>
<tr>
  <td align=right nowrap width="50%"><i>left</i>&nbsp;</td>
  <td align=center nowrap>&nbsp; = &nbsp;</td>
  <td align=left nowrap width="50%"><i>much longer right</i></td>
  <td nowrap>(1.3)</td>
</tr>

which needs no extra cells at all.

This is what I use in the example at:

Sorry, I meant to include this URL in the previous email.
I've already updated the LaTeX2HTML repository with coding
to use this simple strategy; but that doesn't preclude
further changes.


Cheers
