Hello!

As we all know, there are two basic methods of creating a column base webpage.

  1. HTML Tables
  2. CSS Floating Containers

Which method do you use and why?



Well, I use CSS only because Using CSS make the page load faster and it becomes easier to edit the page later. Using CSS is a better option for SEO purpose, too Very Happy

Its really worth trying Sanket.
Its not very easy to make completely CSS based layout but once you will learn how browser reacts to floats, display and margins, you'll be making it easily Wink

I'll be making some tutorials about it.

Yes, I can do something like this:
HTML Tables or CSS? Perfect-3-column-dimensions

But, now, I have chosen to go a simple 1 column, as it has its bonuses (easy to maintain Smile)

In the beginning I always used the HTML, and that was only because I didn't knew anything about CSS. But later when the styling began to interest me, I start to thinking about the floating objects. And since then I used the some floating objects and just because it much easier to edit.

But a couple of times I have used HTML, because at my web, I should use so many floating objects on the same place and in the end it got very confusing. So I try to mix it, by using the two languages.

CSS containers all the way. Faster loading, very very flexible, easier to maintain.

I only use tables If I want to create lengthy schedule or grid list for lots of items. I still dont know why people continue coding websites only using tables. scratch Better support for stone age browsers?

People still use tables since CSS floats are not easy to understand. Clearing floats is tricky too Razz

If you want to look improve appearance of your website, CSS is much better than table based layout. First with CSS based layout your page load faster. You can maintain consistency efficiency with your web pages. Also search engine crawler easily crawling your site. CSS offers a sophisticated layout to your pages.
