Yeah, I've had similar experiences when trying to avoid tables.

This forum, unlike -dt- suggested, is a nice example of how to use tables in a good way.
Thank you, Cookie.

But what if I want one button on the far left of the page and one button on the far right, both right across from each other? With the table, you just add another <td> but with the <div> WTF do you do?

The problem I see with DIV is that it depends too much on CSS, and that is why it's always confused with said coding, and some browsers might have a difficult time with showing the website (because of new/old CSS, not because of DIV).
Tables are supported in all browsers (just like DIV), but they don't require any advanced CSS for positioning. It makes it easy to sort out the content in it.
I agree!
