    designing without tables

    Hello,
    I've got a site project that i've got to design a layout without
    resorting to tables. I want to use a table for tabular data not any
    formatting layout, i am uncertain as to how to accomplish this.
    Thanks.
    Dave.

    Why? There's nothing inherently bad about tables, only when used for
    page layout.

    Tables are designed for tabular data and are the correct element to use.

      With CSS / stylesheets.
      Best bet is to post over at comp.infosystem s.www.authoring.stylesheets
