That's very nasty of them computers. We should rebel against them.
They even force us to post URLs if we want to get help from fellow humans.

You can't put Humpty-Dumpty back again, since display: table-row won't work
on IE.
Too bad IE doesn't support visibility: collapse either.
Using display: block might work, though it would be illogical and risky,
when the element should really be a table row.
The main question here is whether it makes sense to hide rows in CSS when
the page is apparently dynamically generated anyway. So why can't the OP
just make the code omit the <tr> elements altogether (from the HTML
document) that contain no data?
