Hi David,

Thanks - that's an interesting solution - I would never have thought of using 
table-caption for this!  For the moment, I ended up using flexbox - only on 
mobile so IE9 didn't really matter. It seems good, but may have issues on older 
androids (before 4.4) - if that turns out to be a problem for us - I'll give 
this a shot. 

Sara
