Just to be accurate: if you look at the espn.com source you'll see that the only table on the page contains an advertisement in the masthead and doesn't contain the main layout. Because it's the exception and because it's an ad, my guess is that it's markup imposed on the designers from the outside. I didn't see a similar structure on the few sub-pages I glanced at, so it doesn't appear to be part of the overall layout strategy. Regards, Paul
Exactly, that's what I was trying to express... sometimes you can not control what is coming to your website through advertisements' content. -- Anna
