I believe, for IE (though I haven't tested it) this would work:
table.table1 > tbody > tr > td { css here; }
I think IE assumes a tbody, even when there isn't one specified.
table.table1 td { css here; }
Would also do fairly well, but , since this would apply to all tds
within the table tag (even the cells of any embedded tables) may require
some creative spefification of values to work properly
