Yes .. as developers.. But then we are limited to what tools our users have -
-----Original Message----- From: Damian Watson [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 04 November 2003 14:11 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [ cf-dev ] <div> vs. <table> <blink></blink> As in html there are some things you shouldn't use in CSS as they're not all supported but to do what tables do (when they're used to format rather than present tabular data) I'm finding my life is being made so much easier. You can use them accessibly (even with IE5 on a mac) and I think that's what we should be aiming to do as developers -- moving content away from structure. Isn't that what development frameworks are all about? :-P ----- Original Message ----- From: "Paul Fennell" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Tuesday, November 04, 2003 2:01 PM Subject: RE: [ cf-dev ] <div> vs. <table> Yes accepting the argument for one second that divs are for layout The point is that its not well supported and since css 2 is happily motoring on the take up And implementation of it isn’t - the "useful" ness fails as it adds another botheration to the whole development process - IE on macs anyone ? I for one absoultly HATE making code fudges for diff browsers hence ill drop all the way back to html standards to achive results so I know I have very limited cross browser issues May I enquire to the Accessibility of CSS ( NOT Standards) Until the standards are met and implemented by all they are not all that useful for rapid development - Now if you have the time ..... that’s a different matter Another thing Just because CSS is there doenst mean we have to use it CCS3 anyone ? maybe I should be placing all my images <h1 id="album">My photo </h1> #album { content: url(header.gif), contents; } oh wait .. that’s not supported yet..... yes divs have a place .. just not right now -----Original Message----- From: Paul Johnston [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 04 November 2003 13:27 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [ cf-dev ] <div> vs. <table> > <gitmode attribute = 'on' body='There are other browsers > than IE ? Really ? hard to tell...... '> Yes... I know! I use galeon on linux as my favoured browser... Question isn't which browsers/implementations do you like, but whether <div>s or <table>s are "better" or "more useful" now? http://www.wired.com is fully implemented using <div>s... They can't be entirely wrong can they?
