ok, so you say this <table>-less project should "die" just because one 
thing doesnt work that is used in almost _no_ websites. at least I dont 
know any, no matter typo3 or anything else.
and dont forget, we are not talking about gallerys but regular 
_contentelements_ (means: text with image)

ah, so css_styled_content breaks single words then? btw.: there is a css 
property that breaks words if they exceed the specified width. I dont 
know if this is implemented in all browsers though. Anyways, I just 
wanted to mention it [ot].

ok, I believe you. but thats not the point. you cant make nice design 
that looks the same in NS4.08. but thats not the point of this 
discussion either ;)

I prefer being the purist. at least when it comes to contentelements ;)

I dont want to force anyone. feel free to use css_styled_content, 
css_styled_imgtext or whatever you want. write your table layout.
you are free!!!
thats what ext's are for...if you like it take it, if you dont - take 
something else. If this ext. will ever exist I hope you wont use it on 
your sites :D
