In my honest opinion, tables should only be used where they, semantically,
make sense. I've used tables to control the display of forms just for the
styling, but thats a challenge to do in any other way. Pages should be
written in semantic HTML, then styled with CSS after the page is written,
adding a few divs here and there for styling purposes. Writing pages this
way will keep the content separate from the design to search engines and
screen readers. If theres a challenge to do something in CSS, just email a
list like this and get several opinions. There's no excuse for using table
layouts anymore with how far everything's come in ways of web standards.
