Yes most definately depends on the browsers, even when the HTML is 'correct/valid' and is more complex than just a couple of rows in a table the results that show up in the browsers can be as differnt as if you were feeding /dev/urandom to it rather than just normal HTML. The way I currently have it seems to work quite well with opera, IE and even links, but looks so very, very bad in netscape 4.X. I think I'll experiment with your idea though, doesn't hurt to try and have it working with most browsers under the sun.
