I was wondering if you could have div tags align like the board index... say I have a while loop and I want it to make rows of certain items... is there a way to do this with div tags and have the multiple rows... I've yet to see any examples... so ...

I've tried multiple ways and I can't seem to find one either

You mean div tags, or tables? It sounds like tables are what you're looking for.

i believe he wants it so he can make his page more HTML complaint instead of using out of date tables...

Tables are not out of date. When laying things out in a table format, tables are preferred to divs.

Tables are for tabular data. Yes.

Divs are far more flexible since they do nothing. You just modify their position and things with CSS.

Something like a forum is obviously organized in a tabular fashion, so tables would be the preferred method to construct it. Printing out rows in a table with a for() or while() loop is a lot easier than printing out divs, since rows fall into place after one another, while divs need margining and css to properly do that.

When reading the replies in this thread, it makes me wonder, have you people ever heard of the CSS float attribute, perhaps?
