Im also interested in this.... As I'm a programmer I had started laying out my 
css like code, so that id have:

#nav{}
....#nav p{}
....#nav ul{}
........#nav ul li{}

Which to me made sense and was nice and clear. But the problem was that things 
are not related 1 to 1... the #nav ul li{} may need to be styled in multiple 
places. Then it all fell to pieces :)

Subject: [WSG] CSS Document layout/structure


Hi,
I am struggling to get to grips with designing with web standards and 
one of the problems I am having is with "reading" style sheets.
Having sorted out the html code to make it more readable and modifiable 
it seems that we have shifted the "mess" to style sheets. Many of the 
sheets I look at are long, comment-less and very difficult to understand.
So that I don't fall into the same trap, can anyone recommend some 
reading on how to make style sheet structure and layout both 
understandable and also easily modified?
Thanks,

Charlie
