From Jennifer Kyrnin, your Guide to Web Design / HTML
You might be surprised at the HTML5 take on tables for layout. I was at first, but then I realized that it is just a reflection of the reality out there. So, if you still use tables for layout, while it's not recommended, you can do it with valid HTML if you use HTML5. Darla has a list of a few editors you can use for SVG creation. I also created a form where you can share the editors you use for building SVG graphics. And I've created a hub of information about HTML tables, some old and some new. If you have a question about HTML tables, it's probably answered on this page.

HTML5 and Tables for Layout
For the past few years, I have been teaching people the importance of using CSS for layout of web pages and why you shouldn't use tables for layout. But HTML5 changes that. HTML5 recognizes that while tables are not a good layout tool, many designers use them all the time. So, rather than making tables for layout invalid HTML, HTML5 allows them, but recommends that you use a feature that indicates to the user agent that the table is for layout rather than tabular data.

SVG Editor Listing
You can write SVG with any text, XML, or HTML editor using the lessons in Darla's free SVG class, but you can also use an editor to create the graphics. Darla lists a few great editors you can use to edit SVG files in her new article.

Learn to Use HTML Tables the Right Way
HTML tables are a useful tool for a web designer, but you should know when and how to use them correctly. In the drive to get people to stop using tables for layout, many designers stopped using tables at all, but that is a mistake too. Tables are perfect for displaying data that would otherwise be very difficult to display with CSS: tabular data. This article will teach you all about HTML tables and HTML table elements and attributes.
