This is one of the best sites I've seen for demonstrating the sheer power of separating content from presentation. The owner has designed a contest of sorts. Each designer is required to work with an identically formatted XHTML page of content and to manipulate it and format it exclusively with Cascading Style Sheets (CSS).

You see here the content without any styling. (XHTML only, no CSS) http://www.csszengarden.com/?cssfile=none&page=0

Then you scroll down and click on a design. My favorites are:

OK, I spent way too much time on this site, but it was amazing.

This is exactly why I'm trying to break away from html. Looks better and when you want to change the colors, you only have to change a *few* codes.

The Zen//CSS site is a jewel :)

*small sigh* if only I was that proficient at css ... but having a table-less website is fun enough ;)

I don't think my current pages are going to be converted any time soon from tables, but we'll see. I do like the idea and going forward I want to try this.

Anne -- break free -- live a table-less life!

I just discovered z-index. I think my head is going to explode.
