Yeah that’s not how I remember the early Internet.
More like gifs everywhere, wild colours, you have to have that fancy html marquee! And terrible layouts, because aligning divs is difficult.
Good times
I mean, it may be subjective, but Internet was open to public in '93, and divs were specced in '97.
It was more of a joke anyway. The layouts were often tables long after divs if I’m not mistaken
Yeah, definitely subjective, but to me the early days of the web were before HTML 2 - so up to 1995.
And yeah, so many tables for a long time… Mostly because it was a bit messy to work with and had limitations, not to mention browser support requirements and a pretty fast moving sets of specs…

don’t forget autoplay video and music
Landing pages, too. Often with a corny Shockwave animation.
divs were added in the late 90’s… that is not what I’d call early internet

It was fun though.
Why deal with float when you can use a table?
Those mouse cursor tracers lol
