Scotty Posts: 206 From: The left coast-go Obama- Status: offline	The differences between CSS and Stylesheets - 4/27/2004 1:37:35 I'm getting a better handle on this but I'd like to read how some of the pro's explain the differences. With CSS I understand you can set the fonts, colors that will remain constant from page to page throughout a site. I believe I've heard you can use it to layout the page also (in place of using tables - if so, it could position the header and footer but not actually include them?) So how does a style sheet differ? Regards, Scotty

It can render slightly differently in different browsers but whether you notice it or not depends on your layout. Best place to go for answers to Cascading Style Sheet questions is the horses mouth initially although there are loads of other places such as Eric Meyers site and the upcoming Gorilla Guides.

A "style sheet" is typically a linked CSS file... And using CSS for positioning has nothing to do with "including" the headers or footers... but rather defining a position, style, etc. for the "block" (or layer / div) that contains the header or footer code... The link that Deb referenced above is a great site for beginning CSS _____________________________ If con is the opposite of pro, is Congress the opposite of progress? (in reply to c1sissy)
