they are both valued the same, just if you use tables, don't nestle them too deep, like don't put a table within a table within a table within a table as that just makes too much junk in the HTML and the SE's don't like it

Making your entire page out of tables is so not the way you want to go. Tables take longer to load as they have to load all at once, where CSS can load sequentially. Whilst speed is not strictly an SEO issue, it is definitely a usability issue - why not give your user the best possible experience?

Tables were used a lot for layout before the advent of CSS. These days, most "purists" will say that tables are meant strictly for tabular data.

As mentioned, nestled tables can cause longer load times. If you have the choice, you might as well go for CSS and do it right from the start. smile

How can we design a template by using CSS only?

A page designed in CSS is usually a block of text (or images) in Div tags. each div tag has it's own class or ID in the CSS which affects the positioning, background colour, font type, font colour, etc.

Dreamweaver has a CSS wizard which can help with doing the CSS and helps you learn from it
