Hi Joseph
The question you ask is a mighty discussion all to itself! There are so many things to say, from beginner stuff all the way to super-advanced, I just don't know where to start.
Best do some reading first I think.
Hunt around http://www.alistapart.com for articles on CSS design (but you'll need to look at the earlier stuff to get the theory and starting material - try "Flexible Layouts with CSS Positioning" http://www.alistapart.com/articles/flexiblelayouts/ to throw you in at the deep end!! Might not mean a lot but the theory might be useful - it's probably an intermediate document).
Also there's a great load of stuff on WHY to do it (specifically the articles "Better Living Through XHTML" http://www.alistapart.com/articles/betterliving/ and "To Hell With Bad Browsers" http://www.alistapart.com/articles/tohell/)
Try the CSS intro at http://www.w3schools.com/css/
And some books off the top of my head: Jeffrey Zeldman's "Designing With Web Standards", Eric Meyer's "Eric Meyer on CSS" and W3 Schools are advertising "Designing WIthout Tables Using CSS" by Dan Shafer.
Just generally Google around I guess for things like "tableless design", "css positioning" and "web standards" to see what you can dig up.
Once you start reading you'll (hopefully) see why we always moan about table-based design in contemporary web development and want to ditch them forever.
I can dig out a ton more stuff once you get going.
MOU
*dreams of a web where table-based design was killed by having Netscape 4.x's corpse rammed down its throat*
