With HTML Tables, it's easy to switch on the grid (border=1) and see what's really going on. Maybe I'm old fashioned, but WYSIWYG sure the hell made life easier. Unless you are a dedicated UI specialist, you'll probably spend way too much time dinkering with the web UI because it's not WYSIWYG. It's like trying to park an 18-wheeler truck in a normal lot: you can't just "go there"; you have to plan it all out in 7 steps and hope it all works. Bicycle science is now rocket science. I'd like scientific proof "it must be this way" to get whatever wonderful benefit non-WYSIWYG has. Device size handling? Make 2 UI's: fat and skinny; that's easier than parking the 18-wheeler.
