Many current help filese (e.g. Microsoft.NET VS.NET) use colored frames to format the topic. I'd loke to this as well.

Advanced table formatting, along with a completely new editor engine and dynamic styles, are said to be in the works for version 4. In the meantime you can set the background color for entire topics by creating different window definitions.

You can insert more complex tables with all normal HTML attributes using the Insert Plain HTML feature, although this means editing the tables outside H&M, and the content is then invisible to the spell checker and search and replace, which rather defeats the purpose of working in a HAT....
