ok so after sending my site for review, I was suggested to make my site using css, instead of tables

So I am trying, but where i get confused is that do I need to click on Format>styes everytime?

See I started with a blank page and it looked right, It had the new style named and I wrote a header and it said

<style>
<!--
span.css1 { font-family: Tahoma; color: #6699FF; font-size: 18pt; vertical-align: text-top;
font-weight: bold }

-->
I also locked my header picture into place and started to work on the rest of. But Say I type my text and then go and highlight it so that I can add the style to it, it does not save it.

For an example

p><b><font size="5">Bankruptcy.Com</font></b></p>

Does this look right?

Also do I need to go to the format>styles eevrytime I make something bold or colored?

Or can I use the frontpage like quick editor.

And I say that becuase it has like the Letter A that is colored.

Sat I write TEXT and click the color I want and bold, with it make it the css style, or do I need to do it everytime?

I know I am a pain, but I truley appreciate the help

Chris

If you are just starting out with css i would suggest using something like Cascade DTP to help you get the basic understanding (that is if you don't want to take the time to learn everything about css.) I used Cascade DTP when i first started out with the intention to just let it build the pages for me, but, i quickly started to understand how it worked and it wasn't long before i was doing it all manually. If you don't mind absolutely positioned pages, then Cascade works great. And, it doesn't use any tables. If you know what you're doing with the code, you could use Cascade to start with, then go back in and manipulate the code. It also generates really clean code. Hard to find in visual editors.

By the way, i offer free templates you can use for guidance or reference, or whatever. They are made for artists, though. Not your everyday blogging/business templates.

thanks for the tip.

I just downloaded it and I will take a look at it

What I hate the most with the css, is that when I get a layer where I want it, I can choose absolute, or none

and when I preview it in my browsers they are all over the place. Man that just burns me. If I can find software to help me with that, it will be like winning the lottery right now
