Sorry - I worded that poorly.
IE and FF both support "CSS table style" behaviour, although it's (not
entirely unreasonably) only reliably available for the <table> element.
IE doesn't support the CSS display property setting display: table-*;
on other elements.
What I should have said is that you're reduced to using tables (and
arguably mis-using them) because what you really need here is
"newspaper column" layout and HTML / CSS doesn't support that at all.
Although XSL:FO can do it (for many output formats).
