This bit of code
<table>
<tr>
<td>
Hello world
</td>
</tr>
</table>
has about 44 chars, 7 line feeds and 9 tabs = 60 bytes
with 4 spaces/tab thats 54 spaces = 100 bytes
and the default of 8 (what clown came up with that one I wonder..maybe
they had very small spaces) thats 72 spaces for a total of 123 bytes -
over double. So Arthur is probably correct.
