The power of CSS

Posted on September 30, 2004 | Filed Under Internet 

I’ll have a lot to say about CSS over the next few weeks. Not only have I redone this site using a lot of CSS instead of traditional HTML tags, but the company that I work for also redid its Web sites, Macworld and MacCentral, using an all CSS design.

For an idea of the power of CSS, take a look at the Zen Garden. Choose one of the different designs on the homepage and instantly the look and feel of the site will change. How useful is this? Take any industry and think about what you could do. What if you really celebrated Christmas and decorate the office — now with a click of a button, you can decorate your Web site too.

Of course, there are more practical uses for wanting to make a wholesale change to a Web site. For instance, a font change of size or color can be made with one small change to a style sheet instead of trying to go through a whole site, archive, etc. to change HTML font tags.
