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。

一张桌子来布置也不错。但大多数情况下,仅靠一张表是无法得到所需的布局的。很快你就有了2到3个嵌套表。这变得非常麻烦。

It IS a LOT harder to read. That's not up to opinion. There's just more nested tags with no identifying marks on them. Separating content from presentation is a good thing because it allows you to focus on what you're doing. Mixing the two leads to bloated pages that are hard to read. CSS for styles allows your browser to cache the files and subsequent requests are much faster. This is HUGE. Tables lock you into a design. Sure, not everyone needs the flexibility of CSS Zen Garden, but I've never worked on a site where I didn't need to change the design a little bit here and there. It's much easier with CSS. Tables are hard to style. You don't have very much flexibility with them (i.e. you still need to add HTML attributes to fully control a table's styles)

我大概有4年没有用表格来处理非表格数据了。我没有回头。

我真的很想建议你阅读Andy Budd的《CSS Mastery》。棒极了。

将内容与布局分开是很好的 但这是一个错误的论点;陈词滥调的思考

这是一个错误的论点,因为HTML表格是布局!内容是表中的数据,表示是表本身。这就是为什么从HTML中分离CSS有时会非常困难。您不是将内容与表示分开,而是将表示与表示分开!一堆嵌套的div和一个表没有什么不同——它只是一组不同的标签。

把HTML和CSS分开的另一个问题是,它们需要彼此的密切了解——你真的不能把它们完全分开。无论您做什么,HTML中的标记布局都与CSS文件紧密耦合。

我认为表与div的区别取决于应用程序的需要。

在我们在工作中开发的应用程序中,我们需要一个页面布局,其中各个块将动态地调整自己的大小以适应其内容。我花了几天时间试图让它与CSS和div跨浏览器工作,这是一个完全的噩梦。我们换了桌子,一切都很顺利。

然而,我们的产品有一个非常封闭的受众(我们销售的是带有web界面的硬件),可访问性问题不是我们关心的问题。我不知道为什么屏幕阅读器不能很好地处理表格,但我猜如果这是开发人员必须处理的方式。

不幸的是,CSS Zen Garden不能再作为一个好的HTML/CSS设计的例子。实际上,他们最近的所有设计都使用图形作为部分标题。这些图形文件是在CSS中指定的。

因此,一个网站的目的是展示将设计排除在内容之外的优势,现在却经常犯将内容纳入设计的不可言说的罪。(如果HTML文件中的节标题要更改,则显示的节标题不会更改)。

这只能说明,即使是那些提倡严格的DIV和CSS宗教的人,也不能遵循他们自己的规则。你可以用它来指导你如何严格遵守它们。

围绕语义标记的整个思想是标记和表示的分离,其中包括布局。

Div并没有取代表,它们在将内容分离为相关内容块(,)方面有自己的用途。当您不具备这些技能并且依赖于表格时,您通常必须将内容分离到单元格中以获得所需的布局,但是在使用语义标记时,您不需要触摸标记来实现表示。在生成标记而不是静态页面时,这一点非常重要。

开发人员需要停止提供暗示布局的标记,以便我们这些拥有显示内容技能的人能够继续工作,并且开发人员不必在表示需要更改时返回他们的代码进行更改。

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。

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
