Geoff, If a table layout works for you, the project, and the client then go for it. I understand the frustrations you have outlined. There really are some things that are easier to do with tables. Personally, I never layout a page with tables anymore because I need to keep the stuff in my portfolio up-to-date and to show that I know how to do CSS layouts. If that's not a concern to you then don't lie awake at night worrying about it. I still often work on pages that other people have created using tabled layout. Sometimes I can CSSify it somewhat, but I can't always clean it all up. But there's definitely people out there who still use tables for layout who have never even heard of using CSS instead and they make sites that work just fine. Yes, yes, I know all the reasoning behind why CSS-based is better and 99% agree with it and 99.9% comply with it but am also confronted by the fact that 99.99% of the world just doesn't care.
