Bah! Every table cell should be a separate HTML file in a frameset. All clicks should be handled by a hidden frame and AJAX is a floor cleaner.

PS. Get off my lawn.

My dad's employer didn't remove the Java applets from their website until I pointed out that navigation had been broken due to both Firefox and chrome having removed Java support. Until then, the menu showed pixelated hyperlink-blue text that changed color with a transition when hovered or clicked, and couldn't be used with the keyboard. Each link in the menu was a Java applet to take you to the next page.
That's beautifully terrible :-)
