I don't remember claiming that <div> tags were designed for layout, they
were design to divide a document up in to logical divisions. As the link
I provided says:
"CSS (Cascading Style Sheets) was designed for design and
presentational issues"
While CSS does have it's own set of problems, there are fewer of them then
tabular layouts.
