Title: CSS Framework?
Post by: :) on May 22, 2008, 12:08:37 AM: http://www.cssdemos.com/2007/12/29/hands-on-with-blueprint-a-css-framework/

well, after reading that I now know what the heck it is, BUT does it really work as well as it seems? I haven't touched it, or even read that article in depth to get a GREAT understanding of it, but has anyone used a css framework? and does it help?

This is neat, but it’s not semantic. It’s using 2007 tools to effect a 1997 end; in other words, it’s muddying the division between content and presentation.

“Blueprint” might serve as a nice crutch for a person without XHTML+CSS knowledge, but it can’t replace an understanding of semantic markup.

“Semantic markup” should be an oxymoron, but unfortunately it’s not.

Doesn’t this defeat the whole “separation between presentation and content” goal that CSS, as a markup language, sets to achieve? If you really know CSS, I don’t think you need to use this.

Not surprised I've never heard of this, it's pretty funny that somebody has tried (if it isn't a joke) to create a CSS "framework".

He also understands how a framework (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Software_framework) works right? And that css is entirely just attributes?
