I use(d) the term 'table' to talk about code and 'tabular' to talk about graphism. Regarding what is the web, I agree that it's not exactly a gathering ( again, that's why I said [i]"to sum up ... "[/i] ) of the previous medias. But I keep saying that the graphical codes we comply to to present information come from the long term experience in print-design ( ~5.000years ) and short term experience of film-design ( ~100years ). The means evolves faster than the graphical codes to present information. Macromedia, PGA, Wired, ESPN... comply to these codes and present their content in a tabular way. I'm, already, convinced that using CSS is a good thing for all the reasons we mentionned ( accessibility, seo, page file size, ... ). Honestly, when I'm doing some page layout sketches I don't ask myself how I will code it, but if it looks good and give informations in an effective way. Unfortunately CSS seems to lack something since people have to use some hacks to get N columns layout and such. Or maybe that's my lack of experience with CSS layouts that is speaking in my name :p [b]Mathieu "POÏ" HENRI[/b] Loading...
