To answer out of order a bit... no, I hadn't specified any width for the table at all, although indeed the percentages for all the columns did add up to 100%. I would have thought (and expected), though, that the "100%" would take into account whatever the margins were -- apparently not.
And as for changing the margin from ems to %, then I'd lose out on keeping things consistent with my poem and blockquote paragraphs.
However! On a happy note, your solution to wrap the whole table in a div and give that a 3.2em margin seems to have done the trick! At least, in ADE it's worked out fine -- I haven't tried it on the iPad yet, but I'm assuming that it'll come out okay in that.
Thanks so much -- you saved the day once again, Jellby!
