I have been involved with a group who were contemplating setting
up a WWW-based newspaper. One of their major concerns was how to
get a satisfactory layout. In particular, many of the members
wanted to be able to preserve the columnar style of classical
newspapers. I'd expect the <Table> tag to be good for this, but
till that's widely supported, one approach that I demonstrated
to the group was exactly that: pages done as gifs! And they liked
it..
