Do you use css to design a website?
How many of you use css(cascading style sheets) to design a website? I think it's 'cleaner' and easier to do it with css, but it has limitations towards a table of course.

I agree, css is the most elegant way to design a website. But look at this forum. Allthough they use css for design, the main body of the forum consists of tables. Not everyting can be done with css.
CSS is definately the future of webdesign and if you don't use it, you're a tad behind. Css is a very powerful tool that if used correctly can yield some amazing effects. here's something i put together really quick. http://vln.90megs.com this is nothing compared to some of the stuff that i've seen, there are some talented people out there that can go crazy with css

Your website seems to be offline. I can understand why you search for a better host than 90 megs.
I hope we will be able to give you a better service than 90 megs, btw.
Maybe you can help me with a problem in css. I'm trying to make a website with
a header (100% width)
a main body (100% width) consisting of
a left menu (150 width)
a main body (between left and right)
a right menu (150 width).
Untill here it works for me in css.
a footer (100% width).
The footer doesn't want to fit in a css design for me.
Yeah, CSS is good, makes a site alot easier to edit, it helps alot.
I would rather use html than css, its too hard, it took me ages to lern 
NAH !!!! i don't use it for my designs (it's too complicated for me loll)
But in my phpBB forums and in my blog i have! I know a very based tips ...

What CSS is??????????/
(Stand for What??)
(Stand for What??)
i use css only in php sites. I don΄t use in html so my vote is no.
I havent used it yet, just normal html so far, I'll have to read up on it.
i'm a big fan of using dreamweaver templates so i haven't much need of style sheets yet... usually use them in conjunction w/ flash, php, mysql
I use CSS mainly for mouseover effects (like on links and such) 
I have only really used CSS for font properties and table/cell propterties but i agree its very clean and orginized...
i jus luv css...make da work a lot simpler and also more cooler...
css is definitely da best feature fer designing a website..widout it i cant think of making 1...

I like css I need to start learning it, outlawspirit your site looks great using it. 
Yes I do use it and as mutch as I can. I personally found it really easy to learn compared to html/php etc as the syntax is pretty simple and there arent any where near as many bits to it.

Cascading Style Sheets
CSS is so so good. It is easy to use for simple change, but it is extremely very hard when used for big scaled website, like something in the blog (blogger.com). It took a long time before i found out the use of each class.
I'ts very cool and very simple after reading about it
I started to use CSS 2 weeks ago, and i can say it makes easier to do the site and change it
U should try it just for the fun of it

I prefer using CSS cos' I change my mind quite often when it comes to templating Anyway, I use Open Source CMS and all that, so CSS is unavoidable.
Anyway, I use Open Source CMS and all that, so CSS is unavoidable.css rocks because you can change the look of your entire site without going through each page and its real handy for providing a printable version too. I use css all the time, the css sidebar extension for firefox is really handy too. Css is soo much simpler than html and you will be soo glad you learned how to use it in the long run.
I love the way that unlike with a html document you don't need any sort of start or finish to your stylesheet you can just start writing style declarations straight away.

it's a very important revolution, in web developping after javascript, and server-side programming languages, in Fact, you can change the entire appearence of you site without going through the script of each page, but you can change it dynamically, using PHP, for exemple, so you can change the color theme of you site by letting the visitor the choice to do it by a click, ... cool, a good work on it, can resolve many problems, good luck !
Since I just recently know how to use it for the last 3 or 4 months I can't imagine myself not using CSS now. It is the best thing I've ever learned as part of my webmistress skills. I won't go back to those <style></style> again.
LOL
I would like to know ... which web designer that didn't use css in their webpage.
obviously you have to use css to design your page. Unless you use full page flash animation:D

CSS can only be used to style pages in advanced and basic ways. People have been creating normal sites without it for years.
I always use CSS for my designs. It goes like... when I finished all the graphics for my page... I turn and make my CSS for the positioning...
Also CSS is a great help not only in HTML/PHP pages... but also in some scripts that allows you to modify it... take for example Wordpress... which is a very nice & flexible blogging script.

You've probably resolved this issue by now but just in case, if you'll post the page you're working on with the CSS or email it to me, I might can help.
Sure you can create a website without CSS.
But why??
All the mainstream browsers support it, and have for several versions.
It is much simpler to use than inline HTML formating.
It is more powerful than HTML formating.
You can reuse the CSS file, saving server space.
You can seperate the content from the layout, making it MUCH easier to maintain a large site.
It's pretty
Not to say that you have to only use CSS. I like to combine CSS with tables. Just do whatever is simplest!

I do and my hobby is bitching about its limitations where overall layout is concerned. But when it comes to any sort of styling and formatting, I use CSS all the way-- just about the only thing inside my HTML tags are class and id elements.
