Eelco,
Yes, CSS is an improvement on client-side technology to be
sure. The reason I am even using a nested <table> within eight DIV is
because a bug in IE and Mozilla that causes text inside the DIVs to
flow outside the round-corner panel unless you nest them inside a
table. If that bug wouldn't exist, I wouldn't need a <table> -- but
such is the reality of client side technologies.
Anyway, my dislike from CSS really comes from dislike for
client-side technologies in general. It is an improvement, to be sure,
but I much prefer handling this sort of stuff on the server end where I
have far more control and have to worry about far less bugs with the
billions of clients out there.
