I’ve heard the arguments, I’ve heard the claims, but I didn’t really listen until Stopdesign ranted on the issue of tables vs. CSS layouts. I’ll admit, I held out for a long long time, but after seeing this (relatively) reasonable argument on how efficient CSS layouts are, I’m forcing myself to make the move. One of the major compelling arguments of switching is that in Stopdesign’s CSS makeover example, the final redesigned page was nearly 1/3 the size of the original file, which, as you can conclude, leads to a much faster page load. Additionally, editing your pages would simply involve changing a few proportions and directions in a CSS file instead of opening up your table-filled page - increasing productivity (and ridding yourself of headaches).
