Tables are still used. Although some naive individuals will tell you not to use them all. Tables should be used for what they were invented for - tabular data.

The reason HTML tables now have such a bad name is because people began using tables for the skeleton of their designs. Tables are not intended to be used for that. It's just back in the days, styling websites just via CSS was a tricky job, but now, although CSS is still far from perfect, any competent web developer can create a website without even touching a table. The competent developer simply uses HTML tables for tabular data.
