Font-dependent control positioning
I'd like to use Segoe UI 9 pt on Vista, and Tahoma 8 pt on Windows XP/etc. (Actually, I'd settle for Segoe UI on both, but my users probably don't have it installed.) But, these being quite different, they really screw up the layout of my forms. So... is there a good way to deal with this? An example: I have a Label, with some blank spa...
Positioning controls in the middle of a CheckBox
THis is a followup to my previous question "Font-dependent control positioning." It's an attempt to solve the real problem behind that question, perhaps in ways different than the one I was asking about.

DIV's vs. Tables or CSS vs. Being Stupid
I know that tables are for tabular data, but it's so tempting to use them for layout. I can handle DIV's to get a three column layout, but when you got 4 nested DIV's, it get tricky.

Are liquid layouts still relevant?
Now that most of the major browsers support full page zoom (at present, the only notable exception being Google Chrome), are liquid or elastic layouts no longer needed?

On a wiki, is it acceptable to restructure people's headings?
I dislike the fact that people use h3 rather h1, or skip a level just because of the way it looks. IMHO, headings signify document structure, rather than layout. The layout is just a side effect, customizable through themes. Having "wrong" heading levels also makes it more difficult to generate proper TOCs and/or export to other formats...
