Can an experienced MS Visual Web Developer please give some guidance(links welcome as well) on how best to set out content sections in masterpages.
The microsoft documentation shows (here)creating masterpages using tables. However it is my understanding that the use of tables is not really good practise, somewhat frowned upon.
I have got a masterpage but on my subsequent derived pages I am struggling to get content on to the content area without using a table in the code.
I know this is very basic but it isn’t defined very well and I am more used to the direct drag and drop of windows forms.

They don’t use a table element, but div elements & some css.
