I wouldn't buy their software, but the trial seems to be fine, no viruses or anything, and it uninstalls correctly.

I'm not too far into learning HTML yet, so I just use tables . I'm thinking about switching over to xHTML, but I don't think I will. After I'm done with HTML, I'm going to learn CSS.

I cant seem to find it at the moment, but the site suggested <ul></ul> tags as an alternative to <div></div>. With enough CSS it works, but I wouldn't suggests it. Just brought it up in case someone else came across something like that. At the time it was interesting...but a headache soon followed.

i used the <ul></ul> for my panel navigation since it makes things neater. I normally use table as an outer shell for my site and then the div tags to arrange the contents within the table so that I can have more control over the layout of the site.

I try my best at creating a website without tables for layout, but in some cases a table is much faster, easier, and works better. One such instance is when I need to simply place two objects beside each other. With tables you only need to create a small two column table and place the objects in each column.

In the future I plan on doing more reading on CSS and eventually I will probably reach the state where I am good enough to write all my pages without tables. Until then I will use them as little as possible.

I'm currently in the process of turning lots of my table based pages into ones with a nice CSS powered layout. But there are still a few things that I could do with tables that I haven't yet been able to do with DIVs and CSS.

Tables are OK and should be used in places. For example, when you've got data which should be displayed in a table such as measurements. But using them for content organisation is a no-no.

Yeah, I use tables on my site. One of these days I'll probably switch to iFrames if I see that they are suitable enough, but I have to find a new site design and of course theme my forum.
