Bert,

OK, you found a strong correlation, but are you drawing the right conclusion?
1. How many were generated with a WYSIWYG editor?

Why would that matter. Not even the tools can get tables right?

2. How many were generated by some sort of server side script?

So script writers can;t get tables right either?

3. How recently had they been updated?

Why would that be in any way relevant?

4. Were they "nested tables rule!" types (which I hate too)?

Some. So now some tables based layouts are good and some not? Which ones are they? Why?

It's a bit like statistics - they can be used to prove almost anything, depending on how you interpret them :-)

Or rhetoric, which can be used to convince oneself of just about anything.
