So as I recal, last time I checked – tables were bad, divs were good. This morning I read, we have new and improved tables, CSS tables that is.

What?

According to this article, the new release of IE, IE8, will support new CSS values to display pages better.You can see that article for details on the values but basicaly you will be able to create the same tables that we used <TABLE> tags for except we’ll use <DIV> tags with CSS table attributes applied to them.

So, IE8 is changing things, what about the rest of the browsers? Instead of having a “fix” CSS file to make things look right in other browsers, we’ll now have to have a whole new version of CSS to do specifically for IE8?

Could they ever agree on a standard instead of pulling their own way?

Good thing with IE8 still being in beta, it’s still years away for us to need to deal with it too much.
