The vow of web chastity [via haddock] is a list of dos/don'ts for web page design. Most of them are good-uns, though I'm not too sure about "Tables may be used for data which is tabular by nature, but not for attempts at layout." I'm sure the author had a good reason for being against using tables for layout, though its not stated. However, if you're presenting anything more than a page of information (e.g. sidebars, side menus) its pretty difficult to achieve this using only HTML that is going to appear uniformly across a variety of browsers.
