Point taken and thanks for the elucidation :) . But, i would still say - you
may use a WYSIWYG editor, but *PLEASE LOOK AT THE GENERATED CODE* after that
and understand what is happening under the hood, and do not blindly deploy
it. Am not sure how many have tried ADF(Application Developer Framework) -
using JDeveloper. Try it sometimes ;) ...... the page is filled with table
