The one about vertical-align seems wrong. I use it all the time when aligning text next to images and that has nothing to do with tables afaik.

Vertical align needs to be in a table cell.

Although most of the article is satire, vertical align has a lot to do with tables. Centering only works in table-cell elements. Take a look at the code http://howtocenterincss.com/#contentType=text&horizontal=cen...

Or, one of the references mozilla links to there is: http://phrogz.net/css/vertical-align/index.html

Yeah...I wouldn't say that "accuracy" was one of the main goals of this post per se.

Oh, sorry. I only skimmed it and missed the gist of it.
