Ah yes, very good. The famous cave full of Brucies links has once again been opened.

I find it interesting that sites that proclaim the benefits of using css for
layout still use tables for layout.

IThe above site for example, claims on one hand to teach people the 'right'
way to present content without using tables for layout - and does it by
using tables for layout.

I personally like the book:

"Cascading Style Sheets The Designers Edge" by Molly E Holzschlag,
published by Sybex, ISBN 0-7821-4184-6

Of course, we are all different, so try and borrow a copy first before
buying it.

Yes, it does happen rather often.

So far my dip into CSS is mainly for controlling the font/text to save me
writing it out a gazillion times in tables!

Not live yet, just dipping and learning etc.

4000? Not a job to do by hand. This could get ugly.

Not only do you need to investigate CSS tutorials,
you also need to investigate Awk, Perl, or other text manipulation
languages. HTMLtidy is also on the plate.
A day's programming might save you a month's hand-recoding.

I am similar - I find css useful for the mechanical stuff like font
descriptions and also for table descriptions. In fact I find a mix of css
and tables provide a useful option.<!-- ~MESSAGE_AFTER~ -->

I have a confession. Modifying the default css for some scripts I
installed is what helped me "get it." Layout is the hardest part for me
.... probably everybody.

I have a css question; if you have a css file to control things, do all
your html files require any additional code to become receptive?

Thanks,
