Thanks, Mark. That helps me understand my own confusion. The term "markup has a profusion of uses! So all of the 'mls (html, xhtml, xml, sgml) are considered markup languages, but the markup is of content, not presentation and CSS is the presentation style language (which designers of yore called markup, just to confuse things a bit). And markup has other meanings, depending on context. Whew!

Was CSS developed first for XSLT/XML and then applied to HTML? Or vice
versa?
SGML existed first and DSSSL was used to style, but for a nice history see:
