prove that layout can be a part of HTML

You prove that it can't be.

I read:
HTML - Layout

HTML layout is very basic. Not many options exist with the body tag
alone. Tables on the other hand are the bread and butter of HTML
layouts. Any element may be placed inside of a table including tables
themselves.

on the link i given:
http://www.tizag.com/htmlT/htmllayout.php

Apart from belonging in the last century the material presented on that site
is not accurate, at times wildly inaccurate. The author does not fully
understand HTML.

<quote>
The <p> tag defines a paragraph. Using this tag places a blank line above
and below the text of the paragraph. These automated blank lines are
examples of how a tag "marks" a paragraph and the web browser automatically
understands how to display the paragraph text because of the paragraph tag.
</quote>

The above is *not* how it works.

It's also interesting to note that the example following the above statement
surrupticiously uses a bunch of CSS to modify the example into something
that simply cannot be done using HTML.

So why they speak about "HTML - Layout" if layout in not in the HTML
world ?

See above.
