[Timothy Boyden]

Ken,

If you need another example, I just happened to be practicing my CSS
layout skills today with a new project I'm starting. Below are links to
the HTML page and the CSS for it. It's about as clean as I think I can
get it:

http://www.supercoups.com/fms/fms_template.shtml

http://www.supercoups.com/fms/includes/fms.css

I think you'll get the idea by looking at the source for each document.

Compare that to this document created by a web design shop:

Subject: [nycphp-talk] [OT] Yet another CSS Question

OK, so let's say I'm trying to make an honest go of it and resist the
urge to use TABLEs for non-tabular data.

So how do I handle this one?

I'd like to have two links on a page.   They should be on the same line 
together, one flush left, the other flush right.  The TABLE method is
just to have two cells, but of course we don't want to do that.

What I tried was putting two divs, one after the other.  The 2nd one was
relative positioned with its height at -1em.  This did not work on IE 6,
and as I am using a downloaded template, as I twiddled I quickly
realized I was going to make it a lot worse before it ever got better.

So right now I am using a TABLE  and wondering if anybody can teach a
database guy yet another CSS trick.


P.S., you know I wonder if there is something about programmers, 
especially db guys, preferring that TABLE element, some kind of 
subconscious thing...
