    You can create a CSS file using TextEdit and then save the file as XXX.css (replacing XXX with whatever name you choose).

    All of your HTML files should then link back to this .CSS file

    Here's a screen grab of how I always set up the structure of all of my websites

    FYI: index.html is the home page of your website. All other HTML files reside in the 'HTML' folder. The 'PSD' folder is the only folder that shouldn't be uploaded to your FTP space as it contains my layered image files.

    Cheers

    All of your page's information should be the HTML code, but everything about its appearance and how things are laid out should be defined in the CSS file.

    Have a look at these two links;

    Hi, and many thanks for this info - have recently been quite confused in this regard, and I couldn't see the wood for the trees - now it makes much more sense.
    Thanks Again.

    In a lot of cases thats correct but CSS is affected by the way the browser handles your web pages and how your web pages look cross platform. It is better if you use CSS. It's more flexible.
