[SOLVED] How to make tables in CSS!!!!

[chanchelkumar]

Hi friends,

 

  Am working with Tableless pages....(Only with CSS).

But now am getting difficulty in making list in a particular position...

 

Just like shown below...

  One      Two          Three        Four            Five

 

    1          2                3              4                  5

    1          2                3              4                  5

    1          2                3              4                  5

    1          2                3              4                  5

Anybody help me to do like this with out <table> <tr> <td>

 

 

 

Help!!

That looks remarkably like tabular data to me.  The right way to code tabular data is to use appropriate HTML, i.e. table, tr, td etc.

 

Do NOT use tables for layout. Do use tables for tabular data - it's logical, it's rational. it's accessible, it's semantically correct, and it's simple.

thanks Andy...

 

 

But am feared that it will create difficulty (means adding tables..) in searching with search engines!!!

(Forgive me if am wrong!!!!)

 

thanks..

If it's tabular data, put it in a table.  Search engines love well-formed, semantically correct, html.  So do screen readers!

gottah agree with andy. Avoiding tables for layout is a good thing but this doesnt mean you shouldn't use tables at all. Data like database records or personal data or what ever perfectly fits in tables

What they said.

 

However, if what you wanted to do, like your example, DIDN'T have tabular data, you already answered your own question ... "Lists".

 

You can really do remarkable things with all types of lists (ul, ol and dl).
