There were a number of people who commented on my blog entry from August 25th that suggests that you should get rid of your tables.

It's frustrating to you when others use tables but you are still using them, hummmm?

And, yes, it is frustrating to me. Because I don't write the HTML for the HTML/Web Design site at About.

I write about HTML and Web Design for About, I don't actually write the code. On all the sites that I build and maintain I am moving to a tableless format. I wish I could move to that with About, but I don't control how this site is developed.

If you want to help, contact About and let them know that you think the site should be more standards compliant.
