My text-based browser of choice is w3m, which also does tables, but
still no JavaScript.  I agree that no JavaScript can be a good thing.

http://w3m.sourceforge.net/

Side note: If you run w3m in an xterm, w3m can display images in the
xterm window.  Of course, this defeats the purpose of a text-based
browser, so you may want to disable it when you compile.  It looks neat,
though.
