    Hello friends

    CSS is a style language that defines layout of HTML documents. For example, CSS covers fonts, colours, margins, lines, height, width, background images, advanced positions and many other things. Just wait and see!

    HTML can be (mis-)used to add layout to websites. But CSS offers more options and is more accurate and sophisticated. CSS is supported by all browsers today.



    Thanks for all friends

    I think that CSS will have greater power to control how it looks. I would suggest that you learn CSS.

    Yes I agree with this. CSS is good to know today and makes things a lot easier. I suggest you try learning it. W3schools.com and tizag.com are good places to learn.

    Is it uploaded on the web already can we take a look? dreamweaver handles a lot of css activity such as the background repeat , Repeat X, Repeat Y, No repeat.

    hello,
    Take CSS as an editing tool you can design or edit your previous content like images, fonts and etc thorgh CSS, but that requires HTML page. Both are almost equal but but relatively depend upon each other...

    1. Keep it Simple

    This may sound obvious but if you find yourself using complicated coding to achieve your design then you should think again about whether the feature you need is really necessary or if you're just thinking about your design and not your visitors. Too often designers get caught up in their own design and go to great lengths to produce a certain visual effect only to find later on that visitors find it either irritating or unusable.

    Complex code is usually the result of muddled thinking. Plan your layout logically and work from the outside in and from the top down where possible. Look at what containers you will need and break jobs down into smaller parcels. I usually start with a page wrapper and then progress logically through the header, navigation, main content and footers etc trying to preserve the flow of the document as much as possible.

    While good visual design is necessary to attract visitors you must still have good content and a usable and accessible site. If you find your html and css looks like spaghetti then have a re-think and see if you can simplify it. This will make it easier to maintain in the future and will often save code and bandwidth.

    2. Don't use hacks unless its a known and documented bug

    This is an important point as I too often see hacks employed to fix things that aren't really broken in the first place. If you find that you are looking for a hack to fix a certain issue in your design then first do some research (Google is your friend here) and try to identify the issue you are having problems with.

    If you find its a known bug then 99% of the time there will be a known solution to this bug and you can safely use a hack if required knowing that you are fixing a bug and not just correcting bad coding.

    I couldn't count the number of times I've seen layouts using hacks when all that was needed was to control the default margins on the page
