    All you web Savy People!

    I am currently learning Web programing using the "CSS" form of programing. My question is this. Is it easier to lay out the page first, write the CSS instances or to write the CSS page as to lay the XHTML ground work.

    Yea I know. I learn action script, C++, and Python but not Java.

    See thats my point if you take dogs skeleton but put a cows skin on it it wont look right. So do you design the skin to fit the frame or the frame to fit the skin or design both at the same time. .

    Haha, it's okay, web design is supposed to give you gray hairs right? I guess when I think of html and CSS, CSS has always been easier for me... I never even got to xhtml, so I've always assumed it must be a lot higher level than CSS even.

    (which is why I deleted my post, seeing as I've never used xhtml ...)

    Re: All you web Savy People!

    I don't do one or the other. I start with one element at a time.

    What's your first element? a container that holds everything?
    k...set up your html document with the div, and give it an ID name.

    open your CSS document and write the code for that div.

    Got a header? put a div inside that container you just created and give it an id of header.

    go into your css document and modify the height and any other elements you can think of.

    As you go along, you will modify the CSS for text (size, color, etc)... There's no "right way"...only your way. experiment around and do what works and you're comfy with
