See this thread in the archives (from a couple of weeks back).

Basically, yes. Use CSS to control the layout elements of a page (header,
content, footer etc), use tables to control the layout of data.

Also, you wouldn't use a table to layout an entire printed document.

What is your view on using Tables to control text layout in the browser?
Is there a better alternative to using tables?
