No! My vote is definitely -1 on this one. The default templates as is use
tables which is much more cross browser compatible and easy to modify IMHO.
I have no problem with a CSS 'scheme' for templates but IMHO the default
should use tables.
I know people are going to bitch about which the 'default' scheme should be
- so I have a counter argument ;) Why not add a configuration option for the
'default' scheme to webwork.properties?
ui.scheme.default=css
Etc. That way tables can be the default (with no extra configuration) and
people with the 'know how' can easily change to CSS as the default scheme
with one change (not changing every <ui> tag!) - much less bitching!
(IMHO this option also has lots of extra uses, sometimes I'd like to
'design' a new scheme and then swap the entire site at once to a new scheme
- this would make it very easy)
My $0.02.
