Hi Suzanne,
I sometimes use one of a few methods for formatting snippets of
inline data. For a one liner it's not a job for a table really unless
you do a row of headers and a row of values. I know it's probably not
semantic and-all-that but I have two examples here:

The first is a definition list (i just like it as a means of
grouping key-value type information but there's a whole debate on the
use of them that I'm not sure what the consensus is, probably best
avoided to circumvent opening the debate again). The second example is
the same thing achieved with a div and spans. Pretty straight forward to
style it how you want.
