    Tremendous improvements, thanks.

    We've introduced a house rule of not showing any anger or frustration at meal times. If he wont eat but its something he usually eats, we just let him off but he gets no treats. If its something new and he wont even try it, I just calmly tell him that's fine. The expression on his face shows he thinks he's won, right up and til he goes to leave the table to play with his toys, and I calmly tell him he's not leaving the table til he's at least tried his food. All seems to be working so far:)
