CSS layouts?

Copy linkTweet thisAlerts:
Jul 06.2006

Hi everyone,

I have a question regarding css layouts, and wondering their exact purpose. I have worked with web building before, but only on a small (very amateur) scale, html and some css. As far as css layouts, are they designed to work mainly as a table would or is it possible to use an external link to determine the layout?

What I am hoping to have on the website is the navigation bar and title the same on each page, with the content changing in the center on a page by page basis (obviously), without having to change every single page when editing. Is there a way to do this using css, or am I barking up the entirely wrong tree??

Thanks in advance for any help and advice you may have!

what you wanna do can simply be achieved with php includes.

@ray326Jul 06.2006 — What you describe is "content." Content is HTML and site-wide content is best done using server side includes of some type, which depends on your host system. CSS is for "presentation", or how the content looks. This can be applied site-wide using an external stylesheet included in every page. Look at http://csszengarden.com for examples of the exact same content presented using different styles to see how radically you can update the look of your entire site by changing a single file.

Success!
