Display a table of static values with VisualForce styling

What component should I use to produce something that looks like a VisualForce data table but populated with static values.

 

I'd just use a table but that would not blend in with the rest of the page that has the VisualForce look to it.

PageBlockTable is the VF styled table:

 

<apex:page standardController="Account" recordSetVar="accounts">
    <apex:pageBlock >
        <apex:pageBlockTable value="{!accounts}" var="a">
            <apex:column value="{!a.name}"/>     
        </apex:pageBlockTable>
    </apex:pageBlock>
</apex:page>

 

If you want to just use static values in a table with no controller, you could do this:

(NOTE: There is a risk that Salesforce could change their Style Sheet and you would lose your styling)

 

<apex:page controller="MyController">
    <apex:pageBlock >
        <table class="list">
            <thead class="rich-table-thead">
                <tr class="headerRow">
                    <th class="headerRow" scope="col" colspan="1">
                    <div>Account Name</div>
                    </th>
                </tr>
            </thead>
            <tr class="dataRow odd"><td class="dataCell" colspan="1"><span>Burlington Textiles Corp of America</span></td></tr>
        </table>    
    </apex:pageBlock>
</apex:page>
