Martin Grigorov commented on WICKET-4153:
-----------------------------------------

According to Bertrand, Firefox breaks the table borders with empty tbody.
http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/dtds.html#a_dtd_XHTML-1.0-Strict says that <table> 
should have either at least one tbody or tr. If it is tbody then it has to have 
at least one tr.
http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/struct/tables.html#h-11.2.1 also mandates the same.

I kinda like the attached patch because I don't see another solution.

> When a DataTable is rendered without records, the tbody section is empty. 
> This violates the html spec.
> From the spec:
> "When present, each THEAD, TFOOT, and TBODY contains a row group. Each row 
> group must contain at least one row, defined by the TR element."
> and
> "The THEAD, TFOOT, and TBODY sections must contain the same number of
