Comment:
In the sentence "To help users with this [...]", the word "dilineate" should
read "delineate". Moreover, the parenthetic remark "(non-conforming)" before
the words "layout table" should be removed, as layout tables are now
conforming (discouraged, but allowed).

Comment 1 Aryeh Gregor 2011-04-24 18:57:35 UTC 
The parenthetical "(non-conforming)" only occurs in the WHATWG version of the spec, which still does make layout tables non-conforming.  It's omitted from the W3C version, in which layout tables are conforming.
