I'm not talking about hiding things, but leaving the important content on the top of the code and the less relevant content below. And I seriously doubt Google will take action against what I'm talking about, unless someone takes this shit to another level.

And I agree AlienQ, content is king and CSS is just a small improvement. But that's not relevant as we're talking about tables vs CSS.

If you compare a perfect tableless CSS layout to a perfect table layout, the CSS one has a lot more benefits when it comes to loading times (IF it uses multiple pages), SEO (cleaner code, content on top) and management (everything can be changed a lot faster). I don't see how anyone can disagree on this.

Plus with CSS it's a lot easier to integrate designs into scripts.
