I thought I'd have a go at this. The "no tables" crowd always seems to sound morally superior so I recoded a site using these techniques.
It's a lie. 90% of the secret is that he makes a DIV to be a TABLE and one to be a TR and some to be TDs using the display:table, display:table-row, display:table-cell. If you want a tabular layout, use a TABLE.

Floats may be a pain the ass sometimes but percent and em widths make my tummy hurt. Not to mention all the display: table stuff in there and so many browser specific hacks.
and LOL "float:left;" in the CSS code, sure its not on layout but it could have been left out on principal
very cool to make a layout that looks good without floats, far more effort that I would have put in

It's quite interesting how much can be done with CSS, even if it is turning lists into tables
