The Beauty of CSS

There are several advantages to using CSS for the layout and design of a website.

Totally new design and/or layout

Create different stylesheets that have the layout and design you want to have then simply replace your existing CSS stylesheet with the new stylesheet, upload to your server. Then just that quick you have changed the look of your entire website even if it has several thousand pages.

Themed CSS stylesheets

So you have a special day for your website and you want to showcase it by having the events theme on your website. Not a problem with CSS. With the use of a single CSS page you can change the layout and design of your website anytime you desire. You can have different themes to fit into the different holidays, seasons or anytime you just want to have a new look.

The use of an external Cascading Style Sheet allows:

  • One stop location to change font size, face, size site-wide
  • One stop location to change universally used images and colors site-wide
  • The ability to introduce or remove other template attributes and then make one stop changes that will apply site-wide
  • Only one file needs to be changed and uploaded, not many individual pages
  • Consistency - every page will have the same look, so no pages are overlooked if changing manually
