Yeah I think Don was talking about the template in the default folder, not the template in the carl_contest folder. The default (/default) is still used by other templates that don't have their own .tpl files.

Correct. Well, sort of. I guess it will be an improvement for those who use bp because all but one of it's tpls is tableless - plugin_calendar.tpl is still tables for whatever reason. Probably should convert that in an upcoming version of bp. But, as you mention, other templates will still use the tpls in /templates/default/ if they do not contain their own.

I advise against converting the calendar, it is actually what tables are designed for, displaying data, and dates qualify. The reason for going css only for everything else is because tables aren't intended for layout which is how we've used them in the default template.

Now that I think about it, I believe that was why we didn't get rid of the tables in the first place.

I think I will add it to the bp to-do list, the immediately cross it off so I feel like I have actually accomplished something from the list!!

Well lets say that it seems that the vast majority of that errors seem to be resulting from some other plugins I use (as I actually do not write any html-code my own on this blog) - e.g. geotagging seems to one of those.

So what I got out of this discussion was change my layout (adopt bulletproof) and wait until the plugis have been fixed to support xhtml.
