So you're back to your layout being entirely dependent on your markup? wasn't this what CSS layouts were supposed to get away from?

- crazygringo 14y agoWell that's what CSS was supposed to do, but since it never gave us a way of equalizing heights except for tables... Then tables are obviously the way to go. Resorting to JavaScript hacks when HTML/CSS provides you with a solution, despite it being "non-semantic" in some people's eyes, seems unnecessary. (Of course, there are cases where tables won't work either, and JS is your only option.)
- Osiris 14y agoAs opposed to your layout being entirely dependent on JavaScript? I'm not sure I see the difference between requiring JavaScript code to manipulate the layout versus using CSS to do the same. Why is one better/worse than the other?
- Kiro 14y agoI think 2013 will be the year where markup based layout sees a comeback. No-one is using CSS the way it was intended to anyway.
