hey everybody, I'm new to web design, till the date I'm using the table to manage the design. I'm really confuse that how can we do all the design with out using table, if I've to follow the new trend of css layout? can anybody suggest some nice layout that has been made using the css layout? what are the other benefits of that?
This is the most often cited example of CSS flexibility: http://www.csszengarden.com/ Click the designs on the right; nothing changes but the CSS file. IMO, however, for some places, there is still a need for tables. No need to abandon tables totally; they were made for reason-- to display tabular data. They're also handy since getting CSS columns to match height with each other takes ridiculous CSS hacking.
This page pretty much covers the main benefits of choosing CSS over tables, or even JavaScript for instance. http://www.wdvl.com/Authoring/Style/Sheets/Benefits.html
I think that CSS is easier to manage (you can change the appeacrence by editing the CSS stylesheet) and also, its more search engine robot friendly
Visit stylegala.com, there is a lot of good examples of css sites and you can also download some templates there.
