There is nothing browser specific about tables. The <TABLE> tag and
its relatives are part of HTML 3. There are some Netscape-specific
table tags but I've tried not to use any of those. For a really great
reference for distinguishing HTML 3 and Netscapisms, see The Bare
Bones Guide to HTML:

Please also note that the FAQ launcher tables look OK in Lynx so if
you don't have a browser that supports tables, you can still use the
FAQ launchers (and give me feedback!). Does anyone know if Lynx will
eventually support tables?

Thanks,
Nancy
