alt.html.css is merely a cave. No-one lives there, I imagine, as it doesn't
even exist on my local news server. The newsgroup you are after is probably:
comp.infosystems.www.authoring.stylesheets . Many gurus therein.

This lists seems to be suitably structured. It *is* tabular data. CSS is
often used as a replacement for tables as page layout elements. If you want,
you could make the table look neater using CSS. For example:
<table=100% style="border:1px #000 solid;">

I am not sure there is much to be gained. If I use Mozilla/Netscape-based
browsers to copy from the former page/example, I get:
,----[ Selection ]
| MESH WIRE DIAMETER WIDTH OF OPENING NOMINAL MICRON RATING
PERCENT OPEN AREA MATERIALS AVAILABLE
| 3x3 .047 .286 .. 73.80 SS
| 4x4 .025 .225 .. 81.00 G
`----
For the modified page, I get:
,----[ Selection ]
| * MESH
| * WIRE DIAMETER
| * WIDTH OF OPENING
| * NOMINAL MICRON RATING
| * PERCENT OPEN AREA
| * MATERIALS AVAILABLE
|
| * 3x3
| * .047
| * .286
| * ..
| * 73.80
| * SS
| * .047
|
| * .047
| * .047
| * .047
| * .047
| * .047
| * .047
| * .047
| * .047
`----
This is probably not what the visitor wants because (s)he has just lost the
table structure and it needs re-arranging.
Hope it helps,
Roy
