I code to standards in all XHTML (tableless) CSS-p. It is requested, and what is sought after from me. Semantic markup first and foremost - the less special ids and classes the better
I do not say no to table designs, as any site is a site worth doing (almost), but tabled designs will never be frontrunner in my portfolio.
Proven over and over, CSS is the way to markup the net, and I am all over it - hands down!
