And, yes, it is a bit OT. So what do you use for layout? CSS absolute positioning?

Yes! This is what I want. So the following: classname descendantelem { style } means to apply the style to descendantelems but you can assign the class to any ancestor? Can I mix styles for table and td tags like the following? table.t, table.t th, table.t td { empty-cells: show; border-collapse: collapse; border-width: 1px; border-style: solid; border-color: lightgrey; } The emtpy-cells and border-callapse styles are table specific I think but the above appears to work.
