OK, here's a couple of little questions that somebody here might know 
the answer to...

1. Suppose I have something like

   <h1>Introduction</h2>
   <p class='buttons'><a href="javascript:ShowHide()">(Show/hide)</a></p>
   <div id='intro'>
   ...real content...

Without any CSS, this renders as something like

   Introduction


   (Show/hide)

   ...real content...

Is there some way I can style it so that it shows up more like

   Introduction
   (Show/hide)


   ...real content...

or even

   Introduction (Show/hide)


   ...real content...

If so, how do I do it?



2. I want to build a file tree where you can collapse or expand tree 
nodes. The obvious way to do this is with the <ul> element. However, I 
also want each file to have attributes, a creation date, and so forth, 
and all these columns should line up vertically. The obvious way to do 
that is with a table. But it can't be a table and a list at the same time!

I could use nested tables I suppose, but nested tables are EVIL! Is 
there some more semantically-transparent way that I can do this?
