This isn't officially a W3 Validation service, but it does check W3 Guidelines;
You can confirm and place a recognition button of your website containing no tables.
I stumbled upon it, and it seems like a good service; You can either be confirmed Tableless to W3 Standards, allowing the occasional table in certain areas; or be 100% Tableless.
Ever wanted to see in all brilliance whether your site is tableless?

So what's the point in this? You get a little badge for using no tables...?
I don't see how it's a "good service", it basically just says if your site uses tables or not, which fade out by the day.. nothing brilliant.. at all..
I see it fit that being a website with no tables is a web standard as much as HTML and CSS Validity, so I just thought I'd post it.
But it's pointless.. you're putting another pointless ego-increasing badge on your site, that a good majority of the end user doesn't care about if it renders well/properly, looks good, and works.
Putting some god-awful badge on it doesn't make your site more interesting.
So if my site contains a table for tabular data that means my site is invalid? Ha.
I think I would know if I put a table on my page... Also, as Awfy said, does this mean when it's reading tabular data that this is now invalid? No reason for it.
It does detect when you're using tabular data you know...
You can still validate otherwise...
Like I said, there's 2 types of validation:
'Using Tables to W3 Standards', and '100% Tableless'...
