OK, I thought so (about the use of a table).

So, is it basically the same layout code for the gantt chart then as
before? Then maybe we could do mostly "look" related changes for 0.12
and then look into reworking the gantt chart with CSS later (if we think
it's necessary). I was originally going to put the HTML export on 0.13,
but it really looks good and having it in 0.12 wouldn't hurt, especially
if it's the same gantt code so we don't regress in that area.

What do you say?

Personally, I think it's great to get the HTML export polished, and
since you seem to survive after touching XSL code, be my guest ;)
