Rafael, thanks for your help. i noticed the js problem you mentioned in Fiddler<http://www.fiddlertool.com/fiddler/> - we fixed that. thanks for flagging it. interestingly it turns out that Safari automatically renders the .Net as <DIVs> and <SPANs> - without using the CSS Adapters - which why my style wasn't working. in future we will use the CSS Adapters anyway so we won't have bothersome tables.
