[css-d] Now is this a place for a table? (theory & practice)

Sent by Timothy J. Luoma on 21 June 2002 15:03


I consider myself someone who will use a table if a table is called for,
but generally I try to avoid them.

Right now I'm having a stinker of a time trying to find a non-table way to
do what I want to do.

I'm trying to create a site-map, which will list the <title> of the page,
the URL, and the "Last Modified" and display them across a line, like
this:

Name			        Address 		 	      Date

Home			http://www.tntluoma.com			2002/06/21
Ethan			        /ethan/				2002/06/23
Sidebars		       /sidebars/			2002/06/20
Why I like Netscape4	      /netscape4/			1997/11/01

You get the idea.

Anyway, in the world of tables, I would make the "Name" one column
(left-justified), "Address" another column (centered), and "Date" another
column (right justified).

So, should I make this a properly marked up table, or is there a clean CSS
way to do it?

TIA
