Hmmm.
Maybe take a look at http://www.w3.org
I personally use Tables for layout, mainly because they are easyer,
well kind of.
I think it really depends on how large your site is:
For example, if you have a large site in mind and do not want to have
to re-right the items such as navigation on every page and if you don't
know Server Side Includes, or if your host won't allow them. Some
won't, then CSS is the way to go. As you only need to update the
contents of one file.
But, if you want to use tables, then you will need to use some sort of
php include, or template system, so you do not need to update the same
info on every page.
