Stripey Posted April 24, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 24, 2008 Yeah I don't really see much problem with tables - they are very useful for forms etc. They should be hating more on frames!yeah defo very useful for forms. People should be openminded when it comes to design, I had an argument with a guy the other night who insisted that everyone should design pages with dynamic width because "dual 22" displays are standard now".

lepeep Posted April 25, 2008 Report Share Posted April 25, 2008 I'd just bought myself a book on CSS .... so I can do it "properly"...I think the table hating comes from their inflexibility...if you are making a pixel based design it's inflexible - with % or EM layouts, everything is fluid...The biggest boon to not using tables, is that the content can be easily converted to various platforms & delivery methods (you can even convert the CSS driven content into print, with some XML)...I was happy thinking that I could go on making sites in "old skool" tables n traditional HTML....but after reading several books on CSS (dan Cederholm's "bulletproof web design" is a good start) I can see the reasons why CSS XHTML is the way forward.I still can't make a site in CSS as "nice looking" as a traditional HTML site...but, I figure it's just a case of sticking with learning the methods ...PS....the rap is ace. he he.
