One approach I've taken in a similar situation as yours: * don't apply margins to the table, but wrap it in a div and apply the margins to the div. * for margins on the caption: set them to 0, and wrap the text of the caption in a span, style the span with display:block + margins as needed. That still fails in WebKit/Safari..... ... or don't use caption, but headings (like h5 or h6, depending on your document structure).
