Can you show us an example of what you have so far? It does sound

Yes, definitely, I just don't know how to mark it up so I can keep my
lists and the table.
The existing page (that I now need to update) is here:
<http://www.mrc.wa.gov.au/services/fee_schedule.html>
(Please everyone, don't comment on the site or page or how - er - sad
it all is. :-) The site is nearly 4 years old now and I'm sure
we've all come a long way in 4 years!)
So... for example.... if you look at Non-Compacted Waste. (That
heading is actually meant to be removed altogether for the update I
need to make.) The items in points i and ii should ideally be in
separate table rows with their prices associated with each item.
I'd like to sort the whole table out so I have the the fees of all
items associated with those items as tabular data (not just displayed
prettily in a table) - regardless of the level of the item in its
(nested or otherwise) ordered list. If that's possible. Somehow. :-)

I find particularly interesting
http://www.usability.com.au/resources/tables.cfm#very , as it
demonstrates that "accessible" tables needn't be meagre and can, in
fact, contain quite a lot of structured information.
Thanks Joshua, a great resource! But unfortunately those pages don't
discuss lists in tables at all. :-(
