CSS vs XML

R

RPM

I have a web site and was wondering if it can be converted to CSS from XML,
or is it already CSS. I'm confused because of poor and insuficient knowledge.
I'm also in the process of removing all the VML because it can't be viewed
with Firefox nor Safari.

I have a few other issues that are not so important at the present moment.
i.e Hit Counter, Clock, Shopping Cart and a few others. This i will address
at a latter time.

Please, anyone, help me if you so desire and thank you in advance.

CSS is a method to manage the presentation of HTML on the browser screen.
XML has nothing to do with presentation, and everything to do with a
systematic description of the hierarchical relationship of the content on
the page. Thus, CSS has no effect on XML, since XML contains no
presentational markup.

What is it you are really wanting to do? And why?

CSS stands for Cascading Style Sheet. Style information is just used to tell
how something is presented

XHTML & HTML mean (XML) HyperText Markup Language. These pages present the
information

You will always need to have a markup page, as that is what is viewed. The
styling is optional, but recommended.

Your page currently has invalid markup. You are declaring it as HTML 4.1
Transitional, but your <html> tag contains the XHTML namespace information.
