It's fairly obvious where the term Style Sheets may come from since CSS is essentially a tool for styling the content on a website. It's general purpose is to take the images, text and other stuff on a page and style them such that it looks nice and works well in terms of navigation and flow.
But why did they add 'cascading' to the title? Once you learn why, and get used to it, you'll be very very glad they did!

So you've mastered making things look nice and giving things borders, moving things around a bit and maybe even getting things to go side by side but the real holy grail in CSS is getting a full layout to look rigth in not just your browser, but everyone's browser... and to do it without a single table.
There are a lot of ways to do this but before we get ahead of ourselves, let's look at nice clean and simple way to accomplish our task within just a few minutes.

This is kind of a tutorial and a cheat at the same time... in this article, I'm going to essentially give you the tools to do great CSS without having to learn it... but... you'll find yourself learning anyway as you start to use it. I know that might not make sense as you read this but by the time you're done reading, downloading and trying out... you should understand quite clearly exactly what I meant.
Today, I'm going to show you some CSS Frameworks!

Rule #1 when using CSS to break away from the table layout is that you have to know how to make a DIV tag float. There are "position" techniques which will be covered in a later article but to have a truly fluid and properly designed site, you have to know how to use the "float" attribute to make your HTML elements align side by side.

If you've ever had to display a list of items on an HTML page, you've probably tried the <ol> and <ul> tags and opted to just make a list yourself with some spacing or tables or... well, any method you can come up with other than using those list tags. They work great but, you are at their mercy with those big black dots, huge spaces and the indent is wild. But it does not have to be that way.
