Hi!
I split the rules into different files:
general.css
layout.css
elements.css
In these files I try to use "container centric" selectors. That
means: if the XHTML is structured like this:
<div id="container1">
<div id="container2">
<div id="container3">
<p></p>
</div>
</div>
</div>
If it makes sense I try to include as much of the cascade as
possible:
#container1 #container2 #container3 p { ... }
This way it is much easier to identify which rule belongs to the
specific container and where to find it in the pages source.
I try to keep some order when defining the properties, but... I'm
just too lazy ;-)
