one more thing. CSS with Div's, especiallly in case of a parser approach makes it simpler for any designer to modify the skin or completely revamp it without changing the parsed HTML skin. :)

no offence "'hismightiness" but thats true :)

[usmanmamin]

Working in Pure CSS simplifies things, it is the best approach for designing any CMS skin in HTML . The fact the it separates code from designs makes it simpler to adjust and modify the design rather than making adjustments to HTML itself or inline styling. Simply put, Tables as wrappers is a bad practice you cant do much with them. Div's with CSS are more flexible to adjust, modify and balance, by just changing the CSS classes or identifiers tags etc. Tables = Grid

@cybershane: Definitely true

Every time you use tables, a baby's head catches on fire! TABLES have their place, but that place is NOT as a container. It is for tabular data... EVIL!
