Why not use tables for layout in HTML?

Why are tables so hated over CSS? And why doesn't CSS have all the features that tables do?

    They're not bad. They're just bad for page layouts. Tables are meant for data. – Steve Robbins Jul 13 '11 at 17:49
  • Tables and CSS are two different things. Your second question is nonsense (and your first, to a degree, is a misconception). – BoltClock Jul 13 '11 at 17:49

It's a matter of semantics. Tables would be more appropriate to format tabular data.

Also, for the sake of readability, tables can be rather cumbersome to anyone who may have to come along to work on a site afterward.
