Re: [WSG] The Line-Up, The Hits

[Chris Kennon]

Hi,
It was I who misunderstood. Thanks so much, a two-for one. Now I have a 
better understanding on when to use tables.  That's why when I'm not 
working I'm exercising.

Hi Chris
I'm aware it is a table based solution. As an exercise I'm attempting 
to
to do this with CSS, but have trouble with the "Tonight's Lineup".
I think you misunderstood my answer, or perhaps I (still) 
misunderstand your
question.

I was in fact referring to "Tonight's Lineup", which looks like it is
(semantically) tabular data.
TIME:      | PROGRAM:
-----------|-----------------------
7:20 pm ET | Keeping Up Appearances
8:00 pm ET | House Invaders
8:30 pm ET | House Invaders
AFAIK, a table is the semantically correct way to present tabular data.
Tables have not been deprecated, it's only their use for layout that's 
being
discouraged.

I can't see how or why you would use nested ul's here.
At best, if not a table, it would be a Definition List, since we have 
a key
(time) and a value (program).  But is "House Invaders" a definition for
"8:30 pm ET"?
