I understand that there is a CSS file that's stored on the server somewhere. What I'm wondering is the way that any give page is pointed to it and is it easy to implement with FP?

It looks something like this in the <head> section: <link href="style.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" /> EDIT: Pretty good CSS tutorial and stuff here: http://www.w3schools.com/css/default.asp _____________________________ Don't take you're eye off your final destination.

FP2003 is easier than the others but it's not perfect. Don't expect to see accurate results in design mode, they won't be. It'll be closer in Preview mode but for the actual thing you need to preview in browser. If you're serious about moving over then I'd recommend thinking about switching to Expression Web which has a css design base. _____________________________ If it ain't broke..... fix it until it is.

It can be a bit frustrating to start with but stick with it - it's worth it!

I don't mean to overwhelm you, though - even just reading the first chapter or two to get down the basics will help you immensely as you start to implement CSS. Best of luck - and I agree: it is very much worth the effort to develop your site using CSS.
