Kenneth, good timing, following up on the recent discussion about CSS.
NYPHP front end list is the spot to ask this question:

OK, so let's say I'm trying to make an honest go of it and resist
the urge to use TABLEs for non-tabular data.
So how do I handle this one?
I'd like to have two links on a page. They should be on the same
line together, one flush left, the other flush right. The TABLE
method is just to have two cells, but of course we don't want to do
that.
What I tried was putting two divs, one after the other. The 2nd
one was relative positioned with its height at -1em. This did not
work on IE 6, and as I am using a downloaded template, as I
twiddled I quickly realized I was going to make it a lot worse
before it ever got better.
So right now I am using a TABLE and wondering if anybody can teach
a database guy yet another CSS trick.
P.S., you know I wonder if there is something about programmers,
especially db guys, preferring that TABLE element, some kind of
subconscious thing...
