I have been toying with the idea of doing a <table>-less layouts
involving tabular data, calendars, etc...

Recent threads have finally made me do it. Let me know what you think.

When you turn off the styles, the calendar becomes pretty rough on the
eyes, but still "accessible".

Same thing with the tabular data structure.

But, not knowing how the various types of accessibility applications
work, I am guessing that the layout to an application trying to read it
should work fairly well. Let me know if I am way off the mark with my
thoughts.

If you want to respond off list, that if fine by me.

TIA

Table-less html is a silly idea. Semantic html where tables represent tables makes sense instead. A calendar IS a table, semantically speaking, so emulating it with css-p is useless torture.
