Except it would barely show up at all, because most of the people who would care enough to use title="layout" (or whatever) are already using CSS for layout. I don't think any such code meaning "this table is for layout" should be introduced, as it only legitimises the use of tables for layout, which is a semantic nightmare. -- Toby A Inkster BSc (Hons) ARCS | mailto:tobyink@goddamn.co.uk | pgp:0x6A2A7D39 aim:inka80 | icq:6622880 | yahoo:tobyink | jabber:tai@jabber.linux.it http://www.goddamn.co.uk/tobyink/ | "You've got spam!" playing://(nothing)Received on Thursday, 17 July 2003 12:31:04 GMT |
