    tables are nice if you want to incorporate the table feeling to the design aka showing borders. but they are harder to manage between browsers.

    people tend to use layers (div) because you can add javascript to them - like make be or be not, and your css is much simpler, because tables have hierarchy (table, tr, td)

    i think div are best if you need some client-side interactivity, but in a simple website when you may want to use background, ground and foreground tables are still hot and welcome.

    don't follow the hype. it doesn't get you anywhere in creativity. use what you need for a specific job and let the hype for the "artists".
