<dl> Vs <table> 27 Jan 2013 20:08 #6540

I think tables are much better than defintion list.
What is the reason to force the use of the DL?



(I mean, I know on the form would be semantically better the use of the DL, but in the real life, tables or divs are hundreds times better than DL.)

Hi @Tomaselli

I agree but, are you suggesting that there be an option, or do you mean that you'd prefer to automatically have divs rendered in your layouts?

I think the DL could completely removed anywhere from the builder, because they are really unuseful, and replace them with simple TABLEs or divs/spans, then if that is not possible, I would be happy even with an option on the builder to render the layouts in that way.
I know joomla by default use dl in several places, but I sincerely don't care, there are so many things I would change on the joomla core, that if I may find the right people to work with I probably would make a fork...JOOMLA RELOAD.

I jumped and started to work on a demo component... but 2 days later this demo component became the real component. I just showed today the end result to my customer and he turned to me and said... "this is more than I expected"... All of this is because Cook did cut about 70% of my work and provided me more ways to improve the usability of the component. The end result was 17 tables all related between than to generate a full dashboard for the travel agents. Thanks for Cook developers for such great tool. This component would not be possible to be done at short time with all the features in it
