I have a general question on tables. I am noticing many, many web sites out there are still using tables...particularly web sites, such as Monster.com that have multiple blocks of content. I have eliminated tables from all my web sites and use float for blocks of text, but my websites are fairly simple. In looking for freelance web design positions, I have noticed that the more complex websites that the clients reference (as to the type of site they are looking for) use tables.
So, are tables totally taboo for complex, block-style sites? If so, why? They certainly would be a lot easier than trying to use float for multiple blocks of content....I have problems getting the floats to work the same between browsers. I am also noticing that lots of designers appear to design a page of graphics in Photoshop, then slice it up and use html area coordinates to arrange all the pieces in a table acording to area tags.This definitely allows for more creative web site design....does anyone have any opinions on this method? If I do use tables to prepare mulitple-block type sites, I wouldn't want to do the whole site as table, just the various blocks. Could someone let me know the best way to do these types of sites?
