I?ll be a bit more off from topic, but... Though UI designing is different thing from layout designing. For example my site uses very general layout that is styled with css; remove the css file and you have the view you?d have with text based browsers like with Elinks... MVC model fits to websites well: Models provides databases, controllers parsers requests and views specifies the pages you have. Then you have one page that is layout, where you specify what you ever want. And HTML and CSS isn?t anything what this expects. Only, that you can?t really do a website without them... But back to the original question: yes, you can design any layout with css. It is very feasible. But, if the layout is trash made with tables and whatnot, it is just wiser to rewrite whole layout as it has tons of unnecessary elements. For example: you can specify in css to an element to affect to td which is in table with class freenet_index. But, what kind of specification that kind of table represents? -- Terveisin, Samu Voutilainen http://smar.fi -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
