display table as the main page container

Hello everyone!

I do not understand the use of ‘display:table’ very well. Why a lot of pages use this feature as the main page container?

[code]
<div style=”display:table”>
<!– main page container –>
</div>
[/code]

Does it have something to do with responsive design?

Thank you very much!

"display:table" is a new setting in CSS3. It is described [url=http://www.w3schools.com/cssref/pr_class_display.asp]here[/url] as "Let the element behave like a <table> element", but why you would want to do so? Perhaps, as you say, it is to do with @media (media-specific) code to modify the behavior of an element to sometimes behave as a table, and otherwise not? That's all I can imagine it is for...

Success!
