I want to generate a feature comparison chart on a web site, for 3 versions of software, Bronze, Silver and Gold
I am thinking of using a 3 column table and just use an IMG tag beside each reference???
Would it make more sense (semantically) to use 3 DIV's of width (33%) and have a separate <ul> in each DIV???
Multi-column <ul>???

Re: Multi-column <ul>???
If you have several columns and on each you are comparing several rows you basically have a table. A table is the correct semantic (and structural) tag for this. Unless - the number of rows is the not the same for each column.

If it's not a feature-by-feature comparison but merely a list of features for each package, the number of bullets in each column might differ.
For example
http://wufoo.com/signup/
http://www.filtrbox.com/signup.html
http://litmusapp.com/pricing
In the end, it's the design that decides

oh those are all layouts, i understand that. i thought you meant in a table and i tried to visualize it but couldn't. tabled-based layouts are a no no.
