Tables absolutely have their place... for rendering tabular data! The idea that tables are "bad" was always semantic FUD, but i like to think we're pretty much over that these days and the fact remains that they're far from ideal for responsive page-level layout and we now have a far more powerful (and meaningful!) toolbox to pick from. The CSS display-table techniques were at best a hack, disguising the presence tables in the markup, but they were still there at an abstract level in all their tabley glory. The stuff you can do with a handful of lines of flexbox/grid blow a conventional table layout away at the expense of a steeper learning curve. They're honestly worth the effort. |
