"In this two-part series, Edd Dumbill examines the various ways forward for HTML that Web authors, browser developers, and standards bodies propose. This series covers the incremental approach embodied by the WHATWG specifications and the radical cleanup of XHTML proposed by the W3C. Additionally, the author gives an overview of the W3C's new Rich Client Activity. Here in Part 2, Edd focuses on the work in process at the W3C to specify the future of Web markup."

I do hope that you do not tell your students to use table layouts. tables are the WORST things to use to lay out elements.

I explain them the pros and cons of both ways, but I'm quite sure they will be forced to use tables where they work.

The competitors (all that I know) use all tables in their customers portfolios.

And I bet if you did an analysis of the bandwidth savings, a company would go with the XHTML/CSS folks.

As I said, for less than $8 you get 1TB of bandwidth. Do you need more than that? If you use less than this, you won't pay less anyway, so there is no saving in terms of bucks.
