Re: [xsl] FO: center a table

Sorry, I responded to the response but not the original post, so I 
didn't see that the original poster already had a test example.

The following change to your example works just fine.  I added a 
table-and-caption to centre the table, then I added a 
text-align="start" to start-align the table contents, and I turned on 
the border to see that it was, indeed, in the centre of the line.

I hope this helps.
