Is there a best-practice way to build an item
display with multiple columns, but without using tables?

Name     Price     Quantity     Edit    Delete
Apple     $5.00    25           [edit]  [delete]
Pear      $4.00     3           [edit]  [delete]
Banana   $12.00     5           [edit]  [delete]

A small concern here...

The subject line and the presence of edit and delete columns suggest that this is in fact an interactive form, not a display of tabular data.

shouldn't we be pointing to all the good stuff on form styling and layout?

(eg http://www.aplus.co.yu/dots/109/)

or are we saying that forms with tabular data (and edit/delete buttons) can be in tables?

;o)
