CSS Framework?

[:)]

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 works right? And that css is entirely just attributes?

I don't get it either, though it 'sounds' fairly helpful :/

design in photoshop using grid png file - > code into a site easily by using the image as a guide for sizing.

I heard the slicing tool in Photoshop can do stuff like that. Not sure though.

Photoshop can do anything you want it.

yea, but that's a bad way of doing it
once you convert it to imageready, and export into dreamweaver you get a

... this is gonna turn into a why you should use this instead of this thread...

[Kokowam]

You should use pure HTML instead of adding on CSS and PHP because you don't need to do that extra work.
