But CSS is great for accessing html elements that tables can't.

Tables are excellent for dynamic content that can scale to any browser size with
one easy piece of code : "width=100%".

The easiest way to keep your website from scrolling in small windows is to use tables.

I love all the SE theories that assume that google is so fucking stupid that it can't
crawl tables. You just have to be an idiot to believe that.
The fucking Chrome browser has to parse tables but somehow google search didn't
figure it out.....OH PLEASE!!!!! Stop drinking.

The reason those theoies are so stupid is because no search engine is even looking
for tables. It's looking for text, images and links.

My tube script crawls hosted galleries and gets the videos and thumbs and not one
piece of my code gives a shit if a table or CSS is there.

Just opened the source on a youtube video page and it's full of tables.
Maybe google can't afford to hire someone to do a CSS design????? </sarcasm>

This whole thing is just where people who like css have over sold it to people who
don't really know what the search engines do or how a browser actually works.

Reminds me of Miller lite commercials back in the day :

"Less Filling!!!"
"Great Taste!!!"

All those fuckers just wanted to get drunk and none of it actually mattered.
