Right Align Table Cells

[srussellnpr]

When creating a dashboard, I'd like to align the cells with numbers in them to the right (default is left). Any ideas on how to do that?

Thanks, -S.

Updated for Splunk 6.x :-

.results-table .wrapped-results th:nth-child(5), .results-table .wrapped-results td:nth-child(5) {
        text-align: right;
}

Normally the answer is CSS. You could do it at the application level, but to avoid bleedover into other places, it's likely better done at the individual view.

To set a per-dashboard stylesheet, edit your <view> tag at the top:

<view stylesheet="mystylesheet.css" template="dashboard.html" ....

and create your CSS file as appserver/static/mystylesheet.css, e.g.:

/* Right-align values in the fifth td tag of the table row */
table.simpleResultsTable tr td:nth-child(5) {
    text-align: right;
}

If the browsers your using don't support nth-child directly, you may be able to find another way to declare the CSS, or maybe you can get around it with jQuery.
