If you need to add a page to the site, CSS can help you with the presentation and layout of your HTML. I'm afraid though, that it is not going to get you very far in interacting with EditTag, or otherwise allowing a user to change/update the site content. In that you are a 'very new newbie' and the client is unwilling to pay for a site re-design (or, presumably a Web Programmer with Perl skills), the best that you can do is to try to tack your static HTML page onto the existing site, using CSS to make it blend with the other pages, and make the client aware that they will not be able to change the page content at will.
