Is there a difference between display:block; and display:table;? It looks to me like the display type of the dom-node containing table-row and table-cell nodes doesn't matter. MDN says that display:table; makes it behave like a table, but doesn't elaborate on what that behavior is. What is that behavior?
Similarly, is there a difference between display:inline-block; and display:inline-table;?
Comparing the two (block and table), I don't know of any core differences (there may be minor ones) you would see within a vacuum. I believe the major differences are specifically to children. Tables and their children have very different attributes/relationships than a div and its children.
As far as inline-block and inline-table see: What is the difference between inline-block and inline-table?
This article (http://css-tricks.com/almanac/properties/d/display/) has some interesting information, specifically regarding all the different display properties related to a table.
