I know i have asked this a lot but i that is only because i respect your opinions. After the release of my last site which is located:
http://www.james483.fsnet.co.uk
A lot of you suggested that i use CSS for layout instead of tables. SO...
I did. Check it out tell me what you think. If you do not like the colour scheme or anything else i can change with the .css file then tell me what you think would make it look better and i will check it out! SO here it is:

Tables were intended to layout content clearer in the days when the largest webpage around was the HOWTO on setting up sendmail. They were not intended to be the staple construct of massive pages containing all sorts of inline elements. Because, you see, IE won't render a table until it reaches the tag. I'm sure you can see how this would cause problems.

For setting out data (like a List of items, or a Table of High Scores, or links) ... not the whole Web Site.

Just ignore him, he's very sour about tables...

Don't mention the F word to him though or he'll get very angry...

You earn the 'one finger salute!'

My site would be dead without 'the table!'
