There is a description in the Lynx Users Guide, under "Lynx and HTML
Tables".

Recently more text was added, see the current development code's
version of the Users Guide.  You can access it as
<http://www.slcc.edu/lynx/current/lynx2-8-3/lynx_help/Lynx_users_guide.html>.

It seems you missed a lot of recent discussions about lynx & tables;
see the mailing list archives at <http://www.flora.org/lynx-dev/html/>,
look for messages with "table", "TRST", "t2thtml" in the subject, in
the last months.
