The article we are commenting on was specifically written around 2006 to discourage tables from being used for layout, which was a common approach at the time.

Some people can construct tables from P tags for all I care. It doesn't mean it's common amongst professional developers and it doesn't mean it's correct.

I know what the article is about. I’m not commenting on the article though. I’m commenting on the more extreme opinions in this thread.

If you don’t care what those other developers do then why bother replying to me in the first place?

You're responding to someone who was asking what my comment was referring to, and I felt you were misrepresenting what I was talking about.

That's why.

Fair enough. I had you pegged as another one of those nutters but seems I was unfair in that analysis.
