I don't mind you tweaking the page. That's what teamwork is supposed to be, right? ;-)

Yes, of course you're right about the TOC. I didn't stop to think about it in those terms. I should have. LOL

I dislike the section heading "Introduction" for two reasons. It's unnecessary because people can tell it's an introduction. Also, it leaves "Discounted Cost" hanging as the only sub-menu item of "Introduction". (Yeah, I'm gonna get picky about that.  Two or more on each level, never only one.)  If you really think that "Discounted Cost" should be on the second menu level, then let's name another paragraph in the introduction to go with it.

I FREAKING DID IT!!!!!!!!!  I found a way to keep all of the existing formatting in the tables, plus get rid of the horizontal lines that you disliked. I already knew about the Wiki Tables pages; they weren't much help tonight. After working ALL. NIGHT. LONG, I found a template that inserts a compact table without any borders or lines into an existing table. I worked with that for several hours, then suddenly realised that all I needed to do was to use the same formatting parameters as the compact table in my existing table.

That was all it took. The table looks exactly the same as it did yesterday--with all the dual cost items arranged in neat, easy-to-read rows--except that the horizontal lines in the double rows are gone. The extra lines in the Notes column went away at the same time. :-)

I'm really glad I found this solution. MediaWiki mentions that nested tables are not accessibility-friendly and should be avoided whenever possible. My grandfather used a wheelchair, and I once worked with a computer programmer who was blind, so accessibility is a big deal to me. Thanks for pushing me outside my comfort zone, though. I wouldn't have found this perfect solution otherwise.
