 <h2>Introduction to tables</h2>
 
-<p><span class="index-def" title="tables">Tables</span> represent
-relationships between data. Authors specify these relationships in the
-<a href="conform.html#doclanguage">document language</a> and specify
-their <em>presentation</em> in CSS, in two ways: visually and aurally.
+<p><span class="index-def" title="tables">Table</span> layout can be
+used to represent tabular relationships between data. Authors specify
+these relationships in the <a href="conform.html#doclanguage">document
+language</a> and can specify their <em>presentation</em> using
+CSS&nbsp;2.1.
+
+<p>In a visual medium, CSS tables can also be used to achieve specific
+layouts. In this case, authors should not use table-related elements
+in the document language, but should apply the CSS to the relevant
+structural elements to achieve the desired layout.
 
 <P>Authors may specify the visual formatting of a table as a
 rectangular grid of cells. Rows and columns of cells may be organized
