I'm sorry, I think I miscommunicated. Of course, I agree that all options have valuable
contributions in particular
circumstances. I was not suggesting that I want to find one upon which to solely rely, abandoning
all other positioning
options.
However, by and large, the majority of websites websites follow the same sort of layout. Usually
they rely on two or three
columns to organize information (separation of content from navigation elements, or distinguishing
between different types
of content). I have played with both AP and floats to create this sort of layout. In my own limited
experience, neither
positioning method seemed inherently superior. I was wondering which method experienced,
professional designers felt
was superior, and if there is any concensus on the matter.
I certainly see the value of all the various positioning styles within the basic structure of the
webpage.

Don't worry, I already hate Internet Exploder of all stripes and flavors.

Thanks for your responses. I look forward to more opinions.
