Hello,
I've got a site project that i've got to design a layout without
resorting to tables. I want to use a table for tabular data not any
formatting layout, i am uncertain as to how to accomplish this.
Thanks.
Dave.

Why? There's nothing inherently bad about tables, only when used for
page layout.

Tables are designed for tabular data and are the correct element to use.
