Pure CSS Table

CSS can emulate the <table> tag. So, traditional layout using the table tag can be done with pure CSS.

Here is a example of CSS table rendered in your browser:

Here is the HTML code:

<div class="a">
  <div class="b">
    <div class="c1">one</div>
    <div class="c2">two</div>
  </div>
  <div class="b">
    <div class="c1">three</div>
    <div class="c2">four</div>
  </div>
  <div class="b">
    <div class="c1">five</div>
    <div class="c2">six</div>
  </div>
</div>

Here is the CSS code:

.a, .b, .c1, .c2 {border:solid thin red}
.a {display:table}
.b {display:table-row}
.c1, .c2 {display:table-cell}
