Template trouble

Futzing with CSS, as Dave Winer said today on Scripting News, can be a black hole, from which no useful work escapes. Let's see if it's fixed now…

A little tweaking of XML, and presto. Okay, we've determined that generating CSS from a print design tool, InDesign, is somewhat restrictive, because it's for PAPER, DAMNIT, and paper (unlike a lot of websites) has FIXED WIDTH AND LENGTH. So, CSS layers that come out of InDesign have a hardcoded set of positions. This is fine if you're spitting out static pages, but if you're planning on modifying them…

Well, duh. Anyway, my copy of Dreamweaver should be here any day now. I'm hoping to do a comparison between Dreamweaver and GoLive at some point ( but considering I just got GoLive 5.0 to install properly for the first time, and 6 has been out for several months…)
