Hey Johnny,
If I'm understanding your question correctly, the comment in fss-reset.css
should say it all:
/*
Deprecated:
This file is provided solely for backwards compatibility.
It is recommended to link directly to the reset and base files as needed.
*/
The only reason fss-reset.css exists at all is to ensure we don't break
backwards compatibility with users of older versions of Infusion. Users who are
developing new stuff against Infusion 1.4 shouldn't use fss-reset.css at all;
they should <link> the individual fss-reset-global.css and fss-base-global.css
files as needed.
The motivation for splitting the old fss-reset file into those two separate
files was, if I remember correctly, to ensure that our reset wasn't been too
"heavy handed" by default. Now, the reset file resets, and the base sets
additional presentational styles.
This page very briefly describes the purpose of most FSS stylesheets:

Hope this helps,
Colin
