No one has ever said (well, maybe someone has) that beautiful, useful
websites cannot be done with tables. Obviously there are many that succeed
wonderfully.
Table-based layouts tend to be rigid, and hard to maintain. The code
usually ends up looking like an "impossible dog's breakfast." (Personal
experience.)
And so on.
When web designer's are finally re-trained to better use HTML and CSS as
intended, we'll start seeing sites that are at least as good as those
created with legacy coding.
