AndyB Posted July 10, 2007 Share Posted July 10, 2007 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.

chanchelkumar Posted July 10, 2007 Author Share Posted July 10, 2007 thanks Andy... But am feared that it will create difficulty (means adding tables..) in searching with search engines!!! (Forgive me if am wrong!!!!) thanks.. Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/59220-solved-how-to-make-tables-in-css/#findComment-294206 Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyB Posted July 10, 2007 Share Posted July 10, 2007 If it's tabular data, put it in a table. Search engines love well-formed, semantically correct, html. So do screen readers!

RichardRotterdam Posted July 10, 2007 Share Posted July 10, 2007 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 Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/59220-solved-how-to-make-tables-in-css/#findComment-294272 Share on other sites More sharing options...
dbrimlow Posted July 12, 2007 Share Posted July 12, 2007 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).
