>table... ...transparent image

That's what I did, too. Instead of the image, I used <hr> as a minimum "prop-stick" and used external css to set the width a make it hidden. I went this route because it's faster loading than an image and lightweight to code. The disadvantage is that the horizontal rule does show in NN4, but I placed it at the bottom of the column and it's not particularly obtrusive.
