Web developers should use div, ul and li tags instead of using tables to format the content of a web page. The div tag is the best solution for developers to format a content because div layout is easier to maintain and it provides more flexibility for viewers. Div tag uses less code of lines as compared to tables which makes the code more complex and makes it difficult for the developer sometimes to understand the code. Ul and li tags are also the best option for formatting content. Instead of using tables to create a navigation bar, developers must use li and ul tags which makes navigation bar more responsive (Formatting with cascading style sheets, 1998). CSS with bootstrap is another option instead of using tables. However, still many websites are using old table styling structure to format content.
The purpose of fixed-size content is to fix the position of the content, and it will not be changed even after adjusting the size of the browser. Fixed-size helps in specifying the size of elements on a web page. However, people don't prefer using fixed-size because it is not responsive. Fixed-size content is usually used by websites to fix the size of background images in the layout.

The best way to replace tables is by using CSS with bootstrap. Bootstrap is a framework which makes easy for developers to create a layout of a website. Developers use grids instead of a table for designing the layout of the page. Grids make it more comfortable to design a layout as compared to tables.

Fixed size content made look and feel of website unprofessional. It is better to use fixed position to adjust the content at a specific place on a page to make the website responsive. Fixed size content makes website unresponsive for viewers who are opening them on cell phones, tablets, etc., so it is essential not to prefer fixed size.
