Yes, provided that you accept differences in layout between browsers
(specifically NN4). Putting <http://www.treeclassics.com/> and
<http://www.mark.ac> side by side in Internet Explorer, you'll see that the
layout is quite structurally similar, though my site doesn't use tables at
all. The are some complexities in the CSS that I use, which means that I
hide the full layout from Netscape 4 at the moment, but I have found several
ways to work around the problem and will be implementing them as soon as I
have time.
