one true hacked layout

@ 10:29 AM (30 months, 20 days ago)
In this web design One True Layout article by Alex Robinson, that is featured in today's del.icio.us today's most popular, I counted at least 9 browser specific constraints; and 4 hacks. It is the Example of the One True Layout (2-1-3 ordering) I am talking about; I also didn't include the firefox hacks. The article itself is full of browser specific issues. I do understand that designers have to live from something; be it their creations maintenance (browser hacks); but comparing the 3.2 kb long ugly and browser specific CSS file to a simple 5 lines html tables; I can't but wonder how stubborn some people are.
