G'day
Sorry, I emailed direct rather than to the list.
Here it is:
I stay away from using NESTED tables
I try to use DIVS only (and it's fine in simple layouts)
I use a maximum of one table per page, if it makes life
easier, such as where there is a complex layout, or where I
have something that, with some imagination, could qualify as
"tabular data".
Having said all that, if you can control the height of the
captions, you could use divs or ps with a fixed height.
Have a look at the portfolio page on my site (url in
signature) for an example.
I use paragraphs here, but you could use divs, an unordered
list, or whatever :-) The beauty (to me) of this set up is
that at different resolutoins you get a different number of
thumbs across. For instance, at 800x600 I see 5 across, at
1024x768 there's 7 and at 1280x1024 I get as many as 9 across.
P.S. I know this site isn't perfect. Am working on it.
Regards
