AMEN to that.

Any website should be perfectly usable with CSS switched to OFF or in
any browser that ignores CSS. And BTW: any website should be perfectly
usable and look good with JavaScript OFF as well.

But HTML should only be used for semantics and DOM. I do not see any
reason for coding a chimera made out of abuse of tables for
layout-purposes, font-tags and bgcolor-attributes that break a new and
well-designed technology in favour of looking quite the same somewhat on
any given browser of the last 10 years.
Whenever I use Links and the like I search for fast and well-structured
information in an okayish generic design - not for individual designed
webpages....

best regs
