Creating an empty table cell

[Robert Sullivan]

I've always used   when I wanted to make sure my tables displayed
properly.  I have recently seen a comment that it's better to use a break tag
to fill in an empty cell.  I have used <br> in tables to make them more
intelligible to text browsers, but not for this purpose.

Any opinions?
