Newbie CSS questions

[Nick Ravo]

I've become adept at doing a web page(s) in FP. But now, I keep hearing that
I should know/do CSS stylesheets. My questions are 1) Why? 2) Can I do
without? 3) At what point would they become almost mandatory to know. Please
don't respond with a weblink leading to a ton of information or tell me to
Google CSS. I like FrontPage becaue I don't have to know or do code. These
pages I get refered to or Googled to all talk a foreign langauge to me.

The advantage to CSS is that you can apply a font,
a link style, or several other features to your entire web.
Later on if you want to change something, you only have to
change the css file to apply the change to the entire web.

Also learn to use "include" pages so you can change several
pages by only changing the include page.

Below is a link to a simple web that uses a simple css sheet and
a simple include page.

The scroll bar, font and hyperlink characteristics are done with css.

The left nav panel is an include page used in all pages.

Try using some of the template css files (these come with FP) to get your
feet wet.
