RE: Using tables for navigation - is this acceptable?

Hi Julian (& HNY to you),
Have you experimented with an inline list with the list container set to
100%? I have not tried complex backgrounds myself, but imagine you could do
different colours by using IDs for each list item with some padding (I would
try a test, but have an urgent deadline today.) 
Not sure where the 'dead space' would occur though if the list is smaller
than the width: could you invent another colour for that to hide it, or have
a right-aligned background image perhaps?
And, before anyone jumps on me for suggesting the latter, this is a possible
real-world solution to what the client wants, and some of us have to live in
it ;-)
