CSS - Cms For Css Websites

Can anyone please tell me what websites out there use CSS, basically i need to know because this will give me some general idea and so it will help me with my website, i am new to CSS and looking at others will give me some sort of a rough guide on how to imply CSS and to know the understandings of what CSS can do thanks for your help.

Hi,

I am new here, altough I have been comming here to search for solutions very often. I am a very great fan of CSS and have developed my own website (for my small bussiness) in pure CSS and XHTML.

Now, when I started developing my website I created a layout. I have stuck with the same layout ever since. This was my idea, altough the layout is used in different ways by other websites.

However something I did a lot was to browse other pure CSS websites. When there was something I liked I tried to recreate it (I never copied what other people did, always re-created myself).

The problem is that I started my website with the following colour scheme; Black, White and Red. After browsing some website I must admit that I did copy coloures from other websites. Again it is only the coloures I copied! All the implementation (CSS, Xhtml, JavaScript is my own) and when there was an image I liked (for example for the borders) I recreated it on my PC.

Now I am asking this question here because you people do CSS websites all the time. I know that some of you have been in this bussiness for some quite time and thus have the best advice on what should I do. Whether to leave my website as it is or else change it (note that I still did not launch my website). My question is related with Ethics as much as with legaility of what I did.

I am giving some extra detail of what I mean by copy the colour scheme and recreating images.

Copy Colour Scheme: Here I used a colour picker tool. I did not copy my colour scheme from just one website, but from various and used them within my layout (My layout is totaly different from the websites of which I copied the colours from).

Recreating images: This has been done for the borders and shading. Again I have taken ideas from different websites. What I did is see how they did it and then recreate it. Sometimes I altered the images to better fit my requirments. However I have some images which I recreated nearly pixle by pixle the same altough I am not using the same image that the websites are using (I have recreated a small part of it).

Now I checked the websites and there does not seem to be any copyright to protect images or colour scheme.

Also I am not planning to insert my website for any competition. I must admit i like the design I have but not really intrested in any awards. I am new to web development and the only reason I am creating the website is because I wanted a web presence.

Again, I have created all the CSS and HTML by myself using also some on-line tutorials. The only thing I see as a problem is the colour scheme and some images.

I have this question and I would greatly appreciatted if somebody could help me get this out of my mind. Some time ago I learned about the benefits of css over regular tables and other old school tricks. I learned the language and learned how to program sites with it. But despite css being lighter, more indexable, faster, cleaner, etc etc. I still have one mayor problem with it and I dont know if theres a solution for.

Ok my problem is that if I develop a website that is going to be updated by somebody without knowledge in html and css, how would they be able to make changes? with the traditional way of doing websites, they can always use a graphical program like dreamweaver, or front page and do the changes graphically without having to change any line of code. But since css is not displayed properly in these programs and other programs I know about. What is the best way for a non-technical person to update a css site? do you know what I mean? I know they can go to the code and change the text that has the proper id, but really, this doesnt seem like an elegant thing to do.

Is there any program like dreamweaver that displays all css tags correctly? this is driving me crazy. What do big websites do about this, do they develop their own tools? thanks.

Hi

I am trying to learn how to design and develop a website that has consistent behavior across browsers, browser window size and screen resolution.

What are the industry best practices for designing and developing such websites.

Your help is appreciated

Thanks
