Default CSS vs Table

Unlike most website designers I started designing with CSS and not html tables. So my first few months were a real pain as I struggled to create CSS that worked in all browsers. But when I came accross table design I couldn't believe how easy it was. So I wonder is it worth it struggling with css or should you code your designs quickly with html?

Well, personally I'd use HTML tables as they are much easier to create and work with than CSS. I am not so experinced with CSS, but I think that in the near future all web designers will move to CSS instead of HTML tables.

I use CSS now, but I can't still forget about tables... I usually include in some of my web designs, but I don't know if it's worth.
Anyone has any article or tutorial where I can find a good comparison between them and decide finally which to use?

Tables are definitely much easier, but css is probably more universal. Do a google search for "tables vs. css". The first result is an interesting article on sitepoint about it.

The second result has a really good pros and cons discussion. The basic answer is it's not worth obsessively replacing every table with a div.
