Hi Scott, <br>
<br>
What Peter meant is that when the time sheet face stuff was in there
there was tables within tables within tables to such an extent that
nothing could be changed. There is still place for tabular
structures within tsng i.e. google calendars uses tables. Why
shouldn't we? Peter has been trimming down the use of nested tables
in an effort to updating the styling of the system.<br>
<br>
Regards<br>
Mark<br>

In the list of work items for 2.0 was Peter had written: "TSNG
uses html tables to format the web pages. Unfortunately tables
have been used to excessive degree such that there are many nested
tables. Some work has been done to replace this table nesting.
This cleanup of the html is necessary to move to the next step of
using css to do the formatting."<br>
<br>
So, again, I'm not a CSS expert, but I have worked with it enough,
and read enough to believe the following is true: there are some
things that tables can do that CSS can not. Specifically, CSS can
not give you many equal width columns for a tabular layout. So,
while I think that removing the over reliance on tables is a good
thing, I think the movement to shun all tables that seems to be
rampant within the CSS community, is going a bit to far. There are
several places, the simple timesheet and reports to name just two,
that I believe are going to require tables.<br>
<br>
So, does this make sense, or am I mistaken?<br>
