I'm curious; why do you feel HTML tables are bad?

  They are bad for things that are not tables. I suppose the blog index is a table, though.

    “In my times, we designed sites using only tables and handcrafted 1 pixel spacer gifs! And we did just fine!”

    Ok, but you didn't say why they're bad. I bought into that hype back in the day. I don't anymore. They're a tool, they're not inherently good or bad.

      They’re bad because they force a lot of styling that is hard to remove. When you don’t want that kind of styling you are better off not using tables, instead of making them work for you. I guess that is exactly what you are saying though ;)
