css vs tables

[jwk811]

i started my site in css but it was a pain trying to get it to work for other browsers so i just did it all over with tables.

 

people are complaining that they cant view the site on their mobile device (psp, etc.) is it bcuz of the tables? if so is there anyway i can make it work or do i need to convert to css.

 

if i do are their any tips to make it work for all browsers without getting all screwed up?

Tables should only be used to display tabular data.  Use CSS for layout.  To help mitigate cross-browser issues, use a CSS reset (google it).  Similarly, research how to serve your pages property on mobile devices with CSS (again, google it).  For the PSP in particular, it uses Sony's horrible browser.  I'm not sure if there's a way to get anything to look right with it, to say nothing of its JavaScript issues.

I think what you need to  do is learn how to develop cross-browser sites with css.

 

Also know that due to some issues with the mobile phone in question like capability and features, there is meant to be difference. Whether you use css, or table.

css plays a very important role in formatting the webpage in terms of layout and appearance, tables only display the data in tabular format but setting width, height and spacing all can be easily set with just one css for whole website....we should have a website implementing css.......
