That link is different now, sorry. The ones you see now are tables (although I wouldn't exactly describe that as 'tabular data'). The one I was talking about is now the second-last question from the bottom, the "Multiple options with comments". That was originally a table with the comments in a separate column.

I don't see why the question isn't a table? It's tabular data, no?

The \n (for example) puts the content in the source code on a new line, not the content on the page, to do that you still need to use or similar

Sorry, your right, I should have clarified that.

Thanks

your source code would show the tabbed and new lines

To take it one step further...
/r is a carriage return

It is also a good idea to use both /r/n together because of the way that Macs, *nix, and Windows all recognize and render their new lines

Oooooohhhhhh! That explains a lot. Thanks :)

I haven't gotten around to deciding what to do with that yet

Question: in php, what are \t and \n for? So if there's a line like [incode]echo "\t\t\t\t\n";[/incode], what are the \t and \n doing? Why so many \t???

It's a difficult one. If you're on a tight schedule it's probably not worth thinking about as it's so close.

You could use a list. I've never tried, but is it possible to put a div inside a list item? You could use that for layout. Lists can be nested, both lists and divs are block-level elements so you hopefully wont have an issue.

FYI, that page doesn't have a background colour
