Actually I use <pre> quite a lot particularly on what's new/history 
pages because it saves a lot of bother typing in lots of table tags.

What do you mean by "the headers"? I didn't think your example had any 
table header cells.

I have noticed that different browsers treat the cell spacing in 
different ways if you put a bgcolor attribute in the table or row tag. 
Sometimes the colour is applied to the whole table or row unless 
overridden and other times it is only applied inside the cells.
