Let's continue the tennis analogy shall we.
Classic/Tables:
Modern/CSS
I think that sums it up.

You're welcome for the CSS/Tenis mashup.

The only tiny temptation to pause very briefly before getting into CSS is the awful compatibility across browsers. too many hacks and work-arounds for all the browsers, how annoying.
oh no wait lets see, which browser is the worst? Internet Explorer, the one that the vast majority of people browse with. The trauma.
Apart from that niggle its got to be CSS all the way.

I think it's important to separate content and style.
It also makes redesigns much easier.
Keep the same HTML, and update a few things in the CSS.
It took me a bit to switch. When I finally did, websites are so much easier to work with now.

There's way too much dogma in this thread.
Use whatever works best... sometimes it's faster and more break-resistant to use a table rather than a float.- Exactly what I was saying, If I need a fundraiser/event site up by 6pm, I use imageready/tables all that.mrdobolina

imo, you owe it to your client's dollar to use the most future-proofed, concise and clear code. You have a responsibility to all who come after you to do your job properly so they can do theirs too.
Half-assed bodgery is not good value for money in the long-term.
