How to create a table

[Dave Hicks]

While I probably could add HTML-like tables like Thomas suggested, I was a little leery of doing this since people seem to mess up with them a lot. I also prefer not to mess with the base code too much since things may have to be reintegrated into future updates. And I thought that people were happy with the latex way of doing it. But if there are problems with the latex solution, I could look into this again.
