And still - table for layout _is_ a hack.

I'd rather have that single, easy to spot hack, which adds very little overhead, than multiple background images and extra divs coupled with hyroglyphics in my css file.

Yes, I know presentation belongs in the CSS.

No, I don't subscribe to "Never ever ever use a table for layout purposes" although I do frown on nesting them.

No, I don't usually use a table for layout, but I can understand people who use a SINGLE layout table in some cases. If the alternative is too complicated, use a table, but don't nest them.

We've had these discussions before, so I'll leave it there :-)
