Thanks Jim,
So, if I want to make sure we are not using depreciated tags, I should CHECK
Apply Using CSS.
Yes.
**Would this be a problem on pages already created?
No.
I looked int Style Sheets Links and there isn't any listed for the page I
checked, however there is a theme.css in _themes folder - this is why I get
confused with these thangs.
Right. Theme stuff never show up as if you'd done the same thing by hand.
What is the hierarchy of applied CSS? - sheet first, then what?
Browser default, then linked style sheets (in order), then style sheets hard
coded into the page, then in-line styles (i.e. <p style="margin:0">.

| If you select Apply Using CSS, FrontPage will use a shared style sheet to
| achieve the Theme effect.
|
| If you clear Apply Using CSS, FrontPage uses <font> tags and other
| deprecated elements wherever possible.
|
| To determine which, if any, shared style sheets a particular page is
using,
| open that page, then choose Style Sheet Links from the Format menu.
|
| However, if you're using a Theme, the Style Sheet Links command will be
| dimmed. This is so you don't accidentally (or intentionally) override the
| Theme appearance.

| | Howdy All,
|
| In Themes on the setup page, down on the bottom left there's a check box;
| Apply Using CSS - what exactly does this mean? What I mean is if I look at
| an existing web setup with a theme I see CSS sheets even if the box is not
| checked, this lead me to believe themes use CSS whether the box is checked
| or not? What am I missing?
|
| ALSO... If there are several CSS sheets, how can you tell which sheet a
| particular page is using (I'm doing some forensic web repairs on a site I
| didn't design) ? It doesn't appear to show up in page styles...do I have
to
| check each page's html for links? Lost on this one.
|
| Thanks,
|
