Why tableless design, DIV vs. TABLE

Submitted by WebDestroyer on Fri, 04/24/2009 - 02:26

Everybody says avoid tables when you are creating design elements like layouts, themes, pages... Why?

Because:

  • Main
    (X)HTML says; tables are for tabular data not for website-layout
  • Speed
    Tables have much design code than content, divs are faster for download. Save bandwidth!
  • Usability
    Tables let confusing while creating layout(You have to remember which TR or TD ends in which template file)
  • Debug
