If I set properties of a td, such as margin and padding, do they apply

It depends -- margins separate an object from adjacent objects, while
padding separates the perimeter of an object from children within.
Is there anyway to set the margin, padding, and alignment for all text
*within* a td?
CSS rules naturally inherit inward, so if you declare
td { color: #00F;}
it will normally color all interior elements blue unless overridden by a
higher priority selector: see http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS21/selector.html
If you need to force the point, you can declare:
td * { color: #00F;}
...the asterisk meaning all descendants of the td.
How do I have two td's, with background colors, appear flush together,
with no line or space in between them (must work in IE5+)?
table { border-collapse: collapse; }
