wait, now I'm confused. table headers, thead/tbody, summary tags are structural? I thought they were meant to define the data and were good.

Sometime with three or four columns, and eight or ten rows? It's a layout table, so - once we get over the fundamental point that you shouldn't use tables for layout - don't use *any* structural markup such as table headers, thead/tbody, summary etc. Keep the table markup to an absolute minimum. -- Patrick H.
