Is a list just a table by another name?
Tell me where nesting individual list items in an unordered list is any different from nesting table rows within a table? A list is a set of items that share a related or common theme. Does that not also constitute the necessary criteria for the content of a table?
I will tell you the answers. It is down to correct use of semantic elements, for example a set of navigation links is a traditional list? It is also down to the current wide range of CSS styles available for lists.
I still feel unhappy with the increasing trend towards lists with everything.
