Hey guys, I'm working on web designing/html stuff and as I was reading the book..this line stood out to me.

The style attribute is replacing some elements in the always-evolving HTML world. Many features that were implemented using elements in older versions of HTML are now implemented using the style attribute. The <font> tag is an example of one. Some people believe that the table, as a design tool, will soon be deprecated, replaced by increased style capabilities.

So, I was just wondering if this is a good idea? Why?

Right now I'm working with the deprecated stuff..etc. so yeah

thx for every1s answers
 
Well they're not going to change the language, just add stuff to it; eventually the new stuff will replace the old stuff that you (and I) work with now, but it shouldn't be much of a problem updating yourself.
 
Tables are not soon to be deprecated. Tables ARE deprecated.

The style attribute is just a way of using CSS to style your HTML. CSS is a separate language altogether. Style attributes are ok, but it's much better to put your CSS in a separate file and link it that way. Any CSS tutorial online should tell you how to do this.
