"Instead of tables I should be using [BLANK] for web design"

Hi I'm doing my own personal website again (first was in '95)just to post up my artwork, photography, animation etc. I havent done any webdesigning for many, many years though. I'm using Dreamweaver 4 and I'm using the tables within tables within tables thing. Which I think you're not suppose to do anymore. What should I be using instead and can you refer me to a website I can prush up on what I've missed. Thank you.

"Mr Toad has a red blank... okay, skip that one. Mr blank needs a blank in order to blank his blank.... oooh, I'm in deep blank."

I still use tables within tables. find it easier, although it does take a long time to type.

Many still use tables within tables. Nothing wrong with it, possibly easier to do, however the coding looks a mess.

You should be using div tags that are styled and formatted using css.
