I am pulling items from a database, and wanted each row to be made as divs and then after so many rows start a new column.

If you're displaying tubular data, you can keep using tables. This is very common with a database.

If you are, then you would use <table>'s appropriately. <table>'s are only bad when they are used for layout.

Yup, like it says in freak's sig "Tables for layout is stupid." But tables for tabular data is perfectly logical.
