-- >8 -- Which browsers universally (lynx, Firefox) render as 0-sized, which yields, effectively, a three-row table. Adding a \& yields a (with a in this case), which is better at 1+1px padding from the td, but also isn't an empty line, and lynx renders it identically. Having a \ \& does work, I guess, but it injects a space and is a pretty stinky work-around. Best, наб
