Website forms in dreamweaver

Ahh yes... tell the browser what it's looking at... good idea.

1 more question about this though, how come no other site seems to have this problem? I doubt everyone is using tables.

Tables account for probably most of the designs on the internet. This forum is layed out in a table design. Most corporate homepages use a table to layout at least one thing that isn't data. Frankly I've seen less div based designs than table based ones by a longshot.

Tables used to be the way of layouting websites. Now adays we should use CSS, but many are too lazy to bother, since there are still quirks in the browsers that makes it a pain to layout with css - not that there isn't with tables, but we're more used to those

That doesn't make any sense. CSS is meant to help design your web page, not to design 100% of it all for you. You still have to design the template in HTML with either tables or div tags.

Ya, and how do you decide where the div tags go? Css.

[Radical Raccoon]

No doubt, but using tables with CSS is just as good.

So what you really mean is that div tags should be used over tables.

[Zap]

Yea I agree about tables, but w3c doesnt. They want us to use div/css.

[Radical Raccoon]

What? Where's the article on that? I must see.

As long as it works, who cares? Who's going to track you down and shoot you for using tables instead of CSS?
