Now tell me this, if iWeb does not support tables, how can I use them at theses sites:
http://www.wmuthetatau.com/Alumni.html
http://www.cjlyons.org/Lectures.html
These sites were made with iWeb 1.x. 2.x no longer supports these tables. The only reason I upgraded to the new iLife was iWeb. I have been using iWeb 1.x since the upgrade.

I only use iWeb to publish slideshows from iPhoto, etc, and I've never had a problem with the program. It's limitations should be obvious and I think people who need extensive control over their layouts, etc, should use a more appropriate tool. Dreamweaver comes to mind.The writing is on the wall for traditional HTML tables anyway, and CSS-based tables will take their place. I'm surprised that iWeb 2 doesn't support traditional tables, though, at least for legacy code and whining customers.

Ummm,Tradtional HTML tables are absolutely fine where you want your Web page to incorporate - yes you've guessed it - a table.
We're not talking about tables as a way of creating designs here.

Yup, iWeb '08 is a prize piece of crap. Both my MBP and new iMac have '08 and all my '06 photos have gone (though I can still view online) - only the stuff added recently works. It tells me there are missing fonts to install (Oh yeah, where from?) and that I should put the photos on there again manually. Wrong answer. I will not spend another 15 hours recreating the damn thing when I was happy with it as it was.I have moved to Rapidweaver and will not be wasting any more time on that junk.

As a matter of interest, how did you do that on iWeb 1? I'm still using that program and can't see a way to create tables. But would love to.Reply to This
