Honestly, I think a design big wig said using tables was a sin for layouts and some dipwad at our general level read it and interpreted as you shouldn't use them at all. Then a cult of teenage designers started spreading the word without really knowing what the hell they were talking about. If you google it, most blogs say that table layouts are bad but organizing content with tables is fine.

Then a cult of teenage designers started spreading the word without really knowing what the hell they were talking about. If you google it, most blogs say that table layouts are bad but organizing content with tables is fine. Organizing content as in for list's and a stack of prices. When the <li> element isn't suitable. Why the hell would someone want to clutter up there code with a whole bunch of tables just to get a margin right? When you can just add CSS? Don't ever use tables on less it's for a table/list of data. |
