yup, indeedy

here's an article with links to additional resources --

bottom line: it is an art, not a science, and a lot may depend on how 
complex your tables are

<tip>
build your html tables with *fewer* nested tables, rather than more -- the 
simpler the structure, the more likely the browser will render it the way 
you want
(gotta love that word, "render")
</tip>
