linking css tables?

Copy linkTweet thisAlerts:
Nov 04.2005

I know how to link files with CSS. Like a css file on the server that specifies the font weight, face, size, etc. Is it possible to make a table in the original css file and link it to a webpage on the server, so I don’t have to make hundreds of tables and I can just type in a variable box3row1=”This text goes to screen” on the webpage that the viewer is viewing? Does this make sense?

@aaronbdavisNov 04.2005 — I am not sure I understand you, but it seems like you want to have dymanic content. You don't write a table in CSS; you write the rule for [B]displaying[/B] a table. With that in mind, if I understand your question, yes it is possible: you need to use either a database or XML. A database I can explain some of; XML I am less clear on.

If you are using ASP.NET, build a user control and drop it on your design.
