Layout dramas. CSS or tables?

I have a few layout issues that I am having some problems with which I'm really not sure how to solve.

I have a series of 6 well ... currently tables ... which are 125 pixels wide and contain a row of checkboxes. These are all lined up beside each other with a small space between each one. There is a box around each column.

I can achieve this with tables OK, but the issue I have is that there is a variable number of checkboxes in each row, and a different number in each column, and I want the boxes around the columns to have the same height.

In other words, you have something like:

*insert bogus image that wont work here*

One problem I have is that the list is to be dynamically generated, and each column needs to be drawn one at a time, in sequence.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.[/quote]

I think I'd stick with tables on this one.... when it comes to dynamic content it's gonna be far easier and also, tables are intended for data presentation, which this is right?
