What are the disadvantages of using nested tables?
nothingness asked:
Please don’t tell me I should be using css. I know I should be, but I’m in the middle of a job, so for the moment I’ve got to stick with tables. Anyway, basically since I am using tables, I was wondering is there any major disadvantage of nesting them. It seems to be much easier to control one smaller area on the page without affecting the rest of it if you put tables inside tables, but does this create other problems?
