shopping cart template
Most of the shopping cart sites use table layout ( eg: http://ww2.1800flowers.com/flowers).
A template for shopping cart (tableless) would be very useful and informative. Especially placing products in a tableless layout with adaptative liquid design would be tricky.
If i am right, so far Drupal has only one tableless layout (friendselectric).
The information provided on this site is excellant. Thanks for sharing with us.
p.s.
An interesting article here,
Tables are best for layout

I think you're right our site needs a few free tableless shopping cart templates. I'll try to create a few ones.
The main reason behind using tables is because they are well supported by newer and older browsers. However a good shopping cart template will be one using only tables for tabular data.
There are a few more drupal themes not using tables, but it's really easy to adapt almost any template to work with drupal's output.
Regarding the article about tables for layouts, I must disagree, they are only intended to display tabular data. The best approach is to structure your site's content using the appropriate xhtml elements and applying styles using css. Doing this you can be sure your site's content is more accessible.
