The dillo parser is often a bit picky on broken html. The correct way of going about this would be using CSS of course. Your example does render in my version of dillo (which is debian-specific 0.8.5). Not sure why, since I thought they mostly added i18n patches. FWIW I think the previous behaviour is that the parser ignores the </table> and forces a close tag a bit further down the page (what it's doing in my version) while in your version it's forcing the form tag to close.
