today designing our new website order form, i came i was very surprised to find out how many web design companies are doing using really poor coding principles to design their sites. And the worst offenders of all are the order forms. I realize that whether or not it is okay to use tables in forms is iffy. I personally don't do it. for me the same principles for the rest of the site hold true for the order form. things are harder to change and less flexible using tables in your design structure, unless you use them for what they intended. but what about rows and rows of non- breaking spaces to add in white space or little clusters of "break" tags and the "center" tag??
I know many people would wonder at my surprise, but this is what they are selling, shouldnt they 'put their best face forward' so to speak? or perhaps it does not matter, because anyone who would order from them, would likely not know what to look for anyways. hmm, seems wrong somehow....
