Tables
Tables to have things vertically aligned that aren't at the left side of the page (things that are left-aligned on a page are already vertically aligned)
Tables to create a table, i.e. to create a relationship between items across rows and down columns, e.g. in a resume or syllabus
Tables to control placement of multiple pictures on a page:
Judy Miller's home page - http://members.cox.net/jumiller/
Tables to place a set of links in a column on left with content in a column on right, or to use different background colors for part of a page
Jeff Williamson example #1 - www.nv.cc.va.us/home/nvwillj/html-templates/home01.htm
Tables to put things in several columns to take up less vertical space and thereby reduce the need to scroll
