[TYPO3-english] Menu and second level menu in different table rows

[Bas v.d. Wiel]

That's what customers do.. but then still, why not simply use nested 
unordered lists without all the table cruft in between them. The end 
result being something like this:

<table>
  <tr>
    <td id="menucontainer">
      <ul>
        <li class="active">Menu</li>
          <ul class="menu_l2">
            <li>Item 1</li>
            <li>...</li>
         </ul>
       <li>Inactive item level 1</li>
     </ul>
   </td>
  </tr>
</table>

That's a whole lot easier to make, doesn't break the way UL's are 
supposed to be made, and your customer still has tables.. sort of. ;-)
