I know I'm late to the discussion, but thought I'd drop in.

a div is not a layer and a layer is not a div. the layer tag went
bye-bye a while back. just want to clarify that. I hear people say that
all the time.

You could definitely do it that way if you wanted to, but for columnized
data, a table is still the better method. As others have pointed out,
that's what tables are for.
Using tables to arrange other elements on the page is what they should
not be used for anymore. Nested tables are harder to maintain and you
have less control over them.
