Hey guys. I’ve seen many designers not use tables to structure their forms. Some feel its better in CSS but to me forms are tabular data are they not?? I just want to get some opinions on this before I begin creating my forms in tables but I would feel it is tabular data. For example, a registration form:

Form Fields |  Inputs   |  Description
—————————————————————-
First Name   Textbox     First Name can only contain letters
Last Name   Textbox     Last Name can only contain letters
Username     Textbox     Username can only contain letters/numbers
Password     Textbox     Name can only contain letters/numbers
Email         Textbox    

Shouldn’t developers structure a form like that in a table or is it really not tabular data?? Just want to know whats best as I need to make all tables accessible, but if its not appropiate to treat a form as tabular data then I will not. Hope to hear what your opinions and thoughts are. Thanks in advance.
