Me too. I do use tables, because it's very annoying to have nothing
but <pre></pre> to format grammar overviews and I like the layout
with the sidebar (which, incidentally, is also perfectly readable in
text-based browsers such as Lynx).

I made my first table in Word, and when I opened that in a text
editor I saw how much junk it had put in (both the superfluous kind
and the openly hostile kind). That was the moment that I decided to
do everything by hand: it's less work than cleaning up what Word
leaves behind.

I've recently taught myself to do frames now I'm doing the website
for the local Council of Churches, but I don't think I'll use them
for my own pages. I don't need fancy navigation (yet) and there's
nothing, except that, which I can't do with what I'm using now.
