Subject: RE: [WSG] Structuring CSS
 
 How are you guys structuring your CSS files?
I am currently in the process of restructuring our CSS. The approach I'm
looking into is as follows:
 
1) use Eric Meyer's reset CSS to create a common base
 
2) use Blueprint's grid.css for the grid layer
 
3) use a component CSS layer to
a) give a basic styling (only margin, padding, height, width) to
site-wide components
b) give full styling to cross-network components (so they appear the
same)
 
4) use separate directories for skin-based CSS (contains colours,
typography, bg images, borders,... and self-contained image directory)
 
Once in production, so the plan, we can combine and compress 1-3 into one
file.
 
I like to use heavy commenting in CSS files and later compress them.
 
All CSS files should be properly indented and have section headings (ie. /*
=Heading here */).
 
 
I'm open to comments on this scheme. The more discussion the better the end
product.
 
Cheers,
 
Jens

I would say Absolutely, absoutely and absolutely!

My reasoning for this is simple: what about the rest of those users who
don't browse the internet with the browser in full screen? As a matter of
fact I'm doing it right now, so thank god GMail scales gracefully, or I
probably wouldn't use it!

I think the big question is how scalable your web page becomes beyond
800x600 and that all really depends on the kind of content your web site is
providing. If its something which can be extremelly useful for a Google
Desktop application then perhaps you need to take that into account. If not,
then perhaps rethink your strategy/approach.

Thats my two cents.

Hi,

I have a question I'd like to poll people about. Should we still bother
designing to fit in with 800x600 screen resolutions or is it Ok to just
design for 1024x768 and not worry about smaller resolutions? I know
applications like Google Desktop make it more complicated and am interested
to hear people's views.

PS- If this has been asked before I apologise and ask if it's possible to
see mail archives to see the responses.
