Hmmm.
Maybe take a look at http://www.w3.org
I personally use Tables for layout, mainly because they are easyer,
well kind of.

Sorry to rag, but looking at your site that firstly does use tables for layout that could very easily be handled with CSS and secondly purports to do web design but your code sir? What are you using to code?

<h2><font size="+2">
Welcome TO
FreeWeb Design Online!! </font></h2><h2></h2><font size="+2">
</font><small><font face="Arial" size="+2"><small>

Let's overlook the attempt to scale the H2 element with the FONT element, what bothers me is code like the empty H2, FONT elements and the nonsensical *<small><font face="Arial" size="+2"><small>*

this is a perfect example to demonstrate that valid HTML (the page we are discussing here validates as 'valid HTML 4.01'!) does not mean that the page is semantically valid. The source code above is not structured and semantically questionable if not completely wrong. I doubt whether the author of such a source has understood the concept of separating layout from structure, and hence renders the discussion 'table-layout vs. CSS-tableless layout' useless.
