Re: external style sheet ???

Sherill,

Personally I create a "dummy page" first that contains all of the different
element types I am likely to use. Then I create the style sheet as an
embedded part of the head section of that page.

Once this is all working satisfactorily - and looks the way it should look
on the different browser versions we've decided to build for - I turn the
style description into an external sheet and test it once more.

If that all works, then I start building using the style sheet.

Hope this helps
