today
back before web developers actually started to accept CSS, the primary method
of laying out complex web pages was heavy use of <table> tags
– and probably the pinnacle of table layouts was Kaliber10000 (K10k) – a heavy
combination of <table>, <frameset>, and
<iframe> tags all to achieve a pixel-perfect page – it’s only
recently that CSS Flexbox and CSS Grid have been accepted as worthwhile
successors to the power and flexibility of <table> layouts
