One Markup to Rule Them All

Just how far have you taken these familiar elements when developing a new personal or client website? And we’re talking about sections here, not the design. One guy worked with the bare minimum of:

• a short stylesheet
• header
• menu
• content
• sub-section
• footer
• no hacks

..and turned them into a bunch of fluid layouts.

TKJDesign pulled it of and introduced a number of 8 fluid layouts in his One clean HTML markup, many layouts…

From the layouts he’s made, I found it really distinguishing when you try comparing a table made layout. I’ve noticed that if you these layouts were done in tables, we’ll find it a big problem moving elements around.

So the biggest advantage in terms of layout wise when I compare CSS and tables here:

You can freely manipulate the position of your content anywhere.

If it was done in tables, you’ll have to merge and split or create a nested table within the main table to house your content.

That’s why I believe TJKDesign’s flexible markup examples is worth taking a look.
