IMO (and w3.org's too) tables shouldn't be missused for page layout. The

I don't want to argue about how the web should work. How it should work and how it's used are different things.

Anyway it's a simple issue: Decide as a group what is an acceptable percent
of requests that won't be able to view the mod_perl site at this time.
Then look at the perl.apache.org logs and see if we are currently above or
below that level.

That's all I was pointing out.

There is no need to make group decisions. The mod_perl site should be properly viewable by *all* users using rendering user agents (aka browsers) implemented according to the wide open standards. We aren't a commercial body that decides to cut some users off, because let's say 90% is good enough for their profit making machine.


Do you say that Thomas' design makes it un-readable for someone? I think in the worst case, if the browser doesn't support CSS, the user will get the menu on the top, followed by the content. Am I wrong?
