Css Quest

[Just Askin']

Hi, I'd like my web pages to be uniform with the same navigation buttons on
each page and the same header. I read in here that its best to use CSS's and
not the shared borders in FP.

Maybe I just don't understand CSS's but where do I put the code?

thanks for your help.

You create a style sheet and save it with the .css extension.
Then reference the style sheet in the head section of each page.
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="mystylesheet.css">

To use the same navigation on each page, you can use an include or a dynamic web template
( dwt )

For a simple example of a web page that uses an include for navigation and a style sheet
look at my hobby site.
Here's the home page:
http://www.95isalive.com/

here's the include page that contains the navigation.
http://www.95isalive.com/nav.htm

Here's the style sheet.

This is by no means meant to be a guide as the correct way to do CSS.
fwiw, it is however W3C compliant.

Good Luck
