在HTML中,表格不应该用于布局,这似乎是普遍的观点。
Why?
我从来没有(老实说,很少)看到过支持这一点的有力论据。通常的答案是:
It's good to separate content from layoutBut this is a fallacious argument; Cliche Thinking. I guess it's true that using the table element for layout has little to do with tabular data. So what? Does my boss care? Do my users care?Perhaps me or my fellow developers who have to maintain a web page care... Is a table less maintainable? I think using a table is easier than using divs and CSS.By the way... why is using a div or a span good separation of content from layout and a table not? Getting a good layout with only divs often requires a lot of nested divs.
Readability of the codeI think it's the other way around. Most people understand HTML, few understand CSS.
It's better for SEO not to use tablesWhy? Can anybody show some evidence that it is? Or a statement from Google that tables are discouraged from an SEO perspective?
Tables are slower.An extra tbody element has to be inserted. This is peanuts for modern web browsers. Show me some benchmarks where the use of a table significantly slows down a page.
A layout overhaul is easier without tables, see css Zen Garden.Most web sites that need an upgrade need new content (HTML) as well. Scenarios where a new version of a web site only needs a new CSS file are not very likely. Zen Garden is a nice web site, but a bit theoretical. Not to mention its misuse of CSS.
我对使用divs + CSS而不是表的良好参数非常感兴趣。
一般来说,表并不比CSS更容易或更易于维护。然而,在一些特定的布局问题中,表确实是最简单和最灵活的解决方案。
在表示标记和CSS支持相同类型的设计的情况下,CSS显然是更可取的,没有人会认为字体标记比在CSS中指定排版更好,因为CSS提供了与字体标记相同的功能,但以一种更干净的方式。
The issue with tables, however, is basically that the table-layout model in CSS is not supported in Microsoft Internet Explorer. Tables and CSS are therefore not equivalent in power. The missing part is the grid-like behavior of tables, where the edges of cells align both vertically and horizontally, while cells still expand to contain their content. This behavior is not easy to achieve in pure CSS without hardcoding some dimensions, which makes the design rigid and brittle (as long as we have to support Internet Explorer - in other browsers this is easliy achieved by using display:table-cell).
因此,这并不是一个表或CSS更可取的问题,而是一个认识到使用表可以使布局更灵活的具体情况的问题。
不使用表的最重要原因是可访问性。Web内容可访问性指南http://www.w3.org/TR/WCAG10/建议不要使用表格进行布局。如果您担心可访问性(在某些情况下,您可能有法律义务这样做),即使表更简单,也应该使用CSS。请注意,您总是可以用CSS创建与表相同的布局,这可能只是需要更多的工作。
使用DIV,您可以轻松地进行切换。例如,你可以这样做:
Menu | Content
Content | Menu
Menu
----
Content
在CSS中更改它很容易,而在HTML中则不然。你也可以提供几种风格(右手,左手,专为小屏幕)。
在CSS中,您还可以将菜单隐藏在用于打印的特殊样式表中。
另一个好处是,你的内容在代码中总是按照相同的顺序(菜单在前,内容在后),即使在视觉上它是以其他方式呈现的。
这并不一定是一场战争。和谐是可能的。
使用一个表的整体布局和div在其中。
<table>
<tr><td colspan="3"><div>Top content</div></td></tr>
<tr>
<td><div>Left navigation</div></td>
<td><div>Main content</div></td>
<td><div>Right navigation</div></td>
</tr>
<tr><td colspan="3"><div>Bottom content</div></td></tr>
</table>
看,没有嵌套表。
我读过很多关于如何用divs实现这一点的文章,但从来没有发现任何事情,每次都没有问题。
一旦你有了整体结构,Divs是很棒的,但坦率地说,流体页眉/页脚和三个流体列是Divs的一大痛苦。Divs不是为流动性而设计的,所以为什么要使用它们呢?
注意,这种方法将在链接文本中提供100%的CSS遵从性
我认为没有人会在意一个网站是如何设计/实现的,当它运行得很好并且运行得很快的时候。
我在HTML标记中同时使用“table”和“div”/“span”标记。
让我给你一些我为什么选择跳水的理由:
for a table you have to write at least 3 tags (table, tr, td, thead, tbody), for a nice design, sometimes you have a lot of nested tables
I like to have components on the page. I don't know how to explain exactly but will try. Suppose you need a logo and this have to be placed, just a small piece of it, over the next page content. Using tables you have to cut 2 images and put this into 2 different TDs. Using DIVs you can have a simple CSS to arange it as you want. Which solution do you like best?
when more then 3 nested tables for doing something I am thinking to redesign it using DIVs
但是我仍然在使用表格:
表格数据
扩展自我的内容
快速解决方案(原型),因为DIVs盒子模型在每个浏览器上是不同的,因为许多生成器使用表格等
