For some time I have been fasinated that it seems easier to create HTML Forms using Tables then it is to create similar UI using Swing Layout Managers.

Because of this many years ago I wrote an HTML TableLayout for Swing. Basically you define your layout using HTML tables, test it out in a browser and then use that html file to generate a layout in Swing at Runtime.

 I find it easier to use then other layout systems plus very lightweight. This layout was available as part of the Xito Dialog project but I have now made it available all by itself. 

As with all Xito code it is licensed under Apache 2.0 license. 

You can find out more at:
