Hi all,
Its great that more and more people are fully laying out their sites using CSS, but I'm often seeing the problem where the HTML loads before the CSS, leaving a second or so where you can see the raw structure of the site before it gets the stylesheet applied. For example:
Actually, IE loads the CSS along with the HTML and pauses content rendering untill the CSS is downloaded.
What you saw is actually "Flash of Unstyled Content", there's more info here:
