1) using tables produces a lot more effort (and frustration at times) in
laying out a page (however, a lot of WYSIWYG editors still use tables)
2) using CSS gives absolute control over placement of 'objects' on the page
3) using CSS you don't have to code the page as it would be rendered
(top-bottom), but can separate your code into functional 'areas' and can
quickly create re-useable pieces (a key to great coding)
all-in-all, it is 100% coder preference ... I don't like them, never have

Why?

news:e6**************@TK2MSFTNGP15.phx.gbl... you could use a table to contain the whole page and make it a fixed
height - but I don't advise layouts with tables ... use CSS to place the footer at
the bottom
