> Should I try to avoid tables at all costs? Or are they okay to use in CMS type settings or when I need to vertically center an element?

HTML tables are meant to display tabular data. When you have lot of data that can be ordered in rows and columns (Excel style), the best way is still to use tables. What we don’t do anymore is using tables for layout.
