Here's a simplified version of Bill's answer.  You don't need to class each individual `li` if you put it on the whole `ul`.  I'd definitely agree that this is not the appropriate or semantic use of the table element.  This is a *list* of answers.  





    .likert li {
      float: left;
      list-style-type: none;
    }



    <ul class="likert">
      <li> Not Guilty </li>
      <li><input type="radio" name="guilty" value="1" /></li>
      <li><input type="radio" name="guilty" value="2" /></li>
      <li><input type="radio" name="guilty" value="3" /></li>
      <li><input type="radio" name="guilty" value="4" /></li>
      <li><input type="radio" name="guilty" value="5" /></li>
      <li> Very Guilty </li>
    </ul>

I am trying to find code for a likert scale in HTML. I have three questions:

1. I want it to say - Not Guilty on the left and Very Guilty
2. I want it to say - A lot of Damage on the left and No Damage on the Right
3. I want it to say - Not Certain on the left and Very Certain on the Right.

   Does anyone know how to code this?
