> The bad good old days, I sure don't miss writing pages with byzantine structures of tables within tables.
People used to jut throw tables everywhere for no reason, like a superstition or something. I remember one day a colleague was stuck because the page he was working on would take over a minute to render in Netscape but about two seconds to render in Internet Explorer. I took a look at the page and somehow he had tables nested twelve levels deep doing absolutely nothing. I deleted all but two of the tables, the layout looked the same but now both browsers rendered the page in under a second.
