1. Separating HTML and CSS into different files saves time by allowing code reuse. A single CSS stylesheet can be linked to multiple HTML pages to style them all the same way.
2. It helps with debugging by keeping the files organized and readable. Combining HTML and CSS leads to "code bloat" that is difficult to navigate.
3. Separation of concerns keeps code divided into logical sections focused on specific tasks like page structure (HTML) and presentation (CSS). This makes the code easier to work on and maintain, especially for collaborative teams.
The document discusses using CSS to layout a webpage with two columns - a left navigation column and a main content column on the right. CSS code is provided to style the page elements with IDs, including positioning the navigation div on the left with a border and adding padding to the bottom of the main content div. Key CSS concepts explained include using ID selectors to target specific elements, the box model consisting of content, padding, border and margin, and how padding and margins create space around elements.
The document provides tips and best practices for CSS including:
1) Separating markup from CSS styling and following an order of content blocks then CSS.
2) Writing semantic HTML and avoiding inline styles.
3) Using CSS resets to standardize browser defaults and font sizing with em units.

This document discusses how to use class suffixes in Joomla to customize the styling of pages, modules, and menus. Class suffixes add additional CSS classes to elements without modifying existing classes. This allows custom styling to be applied selectively. The key points covered are:
- Page class suffixes can customize individual page styling without affecting other pages
- Modules and menus also support class suffixes to customize individual instances
- Leading spaces before the suffix create a new class rather than modifying existing ones
- CSS can then target the element's original and new classes to apply custom styles
There are two types of pages in the HeadwayThemes visual manager - Pages and System Pages.
Pages are equivalent to WordPress pages - they are custom content pages created in the WordPress admin area that appear in the navigation menu. Users can create and delete Pages.
System Pages are equivalent to WordPress posts - they are templates used by WordPress to display posts in different formats like by category, date, author, tag etc. Users cannot create or delete System Pages as they are theme-generated templates.
The key difference is that Pages are custom content while System Pages are templates used to display posts.

XHTML is a markup language that provides structure and semantics to web pages. It is based on XML and is more strict than HTML. XHTML pages must have a document type definition, html and head tags, and a body where the visible content goes. Common XHTML tags include paragraphs, lists, links, images, and divisions to logically separate content. While XHTML provides structure, CSS is used to style pages and control visual presentation by defining rules for tags. CSS rules are defined in external style sheets to keep presentation separate from structure and content.

It explains basic CSS concepts like selectors, properties and values, and how CSS rules are used to target specific HTML elements and style them. Examples are given of common CSS properties and selectors and how they can be used to style elements and format the layout of web pages.
The document introduces CSS and how it works with HTML to separate content from presentation, allowing the styling of web pages through rules that target HTML elements. It explains CSS syntax and various selectors like type, class, ID, and descendant selectors. Examples are provided of how CSS can be used to style properties like color, font, padding, and layout of elements on a page.
Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) allow users to define how HTML elements are presented on a page. CSS enables changing the appearance and layout of an entire website by editing just one CSS file. CSS uses selectors to apply styles to HTML elements via properties and values. Styles can be defined internally in HTML or externally in CSS files. CSS can control text formatting, colors, spacing, positioning and more to achieve visual consistency across web pages.

Webinar: Designing a schema for a Data WarehouseFederico Razzoli
Are you new to data warehouses (DWH)? Do you need to check whether your data warehouse follows the best practices for a good design? In both cases, this webinar is for you.
A data warehouse is a central relational database that contains all measurements about a business or an organisation. This data comes from a variety of heterogeneous data sources, which includes databases of any type that back the applications used by the company, data files exported by some applications, or APIs provided by internal or external services.
But designing a data warehouse correctly is a hard task, which requires gathering information about the business processes that need to be analysed in the first place. These processes must be translated into so-called star schemas, which means, denormalised databases where each table represents a dimension or facts.
We will discuss these topics:
- How to gather information about a business;
- Understanding dictionaries and how to identify business entities;
- Dimensions and facts;
- Setting a table granularity;
- Types of facts;
- Types of dimensions;
- Snowflakes and how to avoid them;
- Expanding existing dimensions and facts.

1. Introduction
Simply put, CSS (Cascading Style Sheets) is a powerful "tool" that
webmasters have available to them, to help them design and then
further, maintain the look and feel of their sites, with minimum effort.
In this chapter, I just want to wet your appetite for style sheets, and show
you their potential. In the remainder of this book, I'll show you how to do
this yourself.
In what follows, I'll show you some example pages, and invite you to look
at the source code of those pages. To do that, right click the web page,
and select "View Source", or View Page Source in Firefox.
Alternatively, you can view the source code of the
pages by using the View menu at the top of your
browser (some basic HTML knowledge is required to
follow what is going on).
OK, let's begin with a simple example.
You know those horribly large H1 header tags? To
make your site look more professional, you might
want to make those headers smaller. You could
just use an H2 or H3 header, but then you risk losing
the possible SEO benefits of an H1 tag.
Using CSS, you can make them appear smaller, but
then you can also make them smaller using
standard HTML tags in the page, so why bother with
CSS?
Have a look at the source code of this page. It
uses HTML tags in the web page to control the sizes
of the font.:
http://ezseonewstutorials.com/csscourse/1/1.html
I can even control the fonts using HTML tags in the document.
6. 3
Here, take a look at the source of this page:
http://ezseonewstutorials.com/csscourse/1/2.html
Now look at this page, which uses CSS to control the size and the font of
the text:
http://ezseonewstutorials.com/csscourse/1/css1.html
http://ezseonewstutorials.com/csscourse/1/style.css
What do you notice about the source code of these different pages?
Do you see how there is no HTML formatting tags in the page using CSS?
All the page does is specify which text is an H1 header, and which text is
a paragraph. Even without these formatting tags, the text is formatted!
Do you also see that the non-CSS pages need to have the HTML tags to
tell the web browser which fonts and sizes to use.
You should notice that the size of the non-CSS files are larger than those
using CSS, and far more complex.
Now, imagine you have 100 pages on a site, and you want to change
the font sizes and colours on all 100 pages. If you have used HTML to
specify size and style of your fonts, then you'll need to change 100
pages. However, if you use CSS to control the size and style, you only
need to edit one file.
To demonstrate this, look at this web page:
http://ezseonewstutorials.com/csscourse/1/css2.html
The source of that web page is identical to the source of this one:
http://ezseonewstutorials.com/csscourse/1/css1.html
7. 4
The only difference is that I have used a different style sheet (to simulate
the editing of the original style sheet) to control the appearance.
- first page
http://ezseonewstutorials.com/csscourse/1/style2.css
- second page
http://ezseonewstutorials.com/csscourse/1/style.css
That means, by editing one file (the style sheet) I made sweeping
changes to the appearance of the page (and every page using that
style sheet).
On a 100 page site using CSS to control the appearance, all 100 pages
would have changed the moment I uploaded my edited style sheet.
Now can you see the potential?
Have a look at the source code of these two HTML documents:
- Non-CSS
http://ezseonewstutorials.com/csscourse/1/2.html
- CSS
http://ezseonewstutorials.com/csscourse/1/css2.html
Which would you imagine was the bigger file (and remember bigger =
slower loading).
Well, the CSS page looks more complicated, but here are the file sizes:
non-css file: 485 bytes
css file: 407 bytes
The page using CSS is smaller.
The formatting of the web page using CSS has all of the formatting
commands in its style sheet, not in the HTML file, so the HTML file is smaller:
http://ezseonewstutorials.com/csscourse/1/style2.css
8. 5
Now you may be thinking that its not that much smaller, but we are
talking about a page that has very little content.
To give you a better idea, when I switched my ezseonews.com site over
from non-CSS to CSS, the file size of the homepage went from 18 Kb
down to 12 Kb. That’s a 30% saving, and the file sizes would be even
smaller if I removed all inline formatting that still exists from the original
non-CSS design I converted from.
What I have shown you is only the beginning. CSS can be used to
position elements on your page, such as right and left menus. Have a
look at my ezseonews.com homepage, and view the source. Most
beginners would have used tables to position the left and right menus
(and my original site did), but I have used CSS. It means quicker loading
times of the pages, and smaller, less-complex code.
In this CSS tutorial, I'll show you how to do all of this for yourself :o)
9. 6
2. Table-less Page Layouts
In the last chapter I gave you an introduction to Cascading Style Sheets
(CSS) by showing you some examples of text formatting using stylesheets.
You also saw how quickly you could change the look and feel of a
complete site, by changing one file - the stylesheet.
In this chapter, we'll continue with this introduction by looking at another
powerful use of CSS - tableless web page layout. I’ll show you some
simple examples of what is possible.
Remember, this chapter is just an introduction. I wont be showing you
now how to do this for yourself. That will come later in the tutorial.
OK, let's start off by looking at a web page which has been laid out using
tables. Look at this page, and examine the source code:
http://ezseonewstutorials.com/csscourse/2/table1.htm
Those of you familiar with HTML tables will see a simple 3 column, 3 row
table, where some of the cells have been joined to form the header and
the footer cells. This simple file is 749 bytes in size.
OK, now let's look at another page which has a similar layout, but uses
CSS instead:
http://ezseonewstutorials.com/csscourse/2/nontable1.htm
http://ezseonewstutorials.com/csscourse/2/nontable.css
Have a look at the source code behind this page. Note that this simple
layout is 609 bytes in size. It achieves essentially the same thing, but in 140
fewer bytes.
You'll notice that there are no table tags. Each section of the page
(header, menus, footer and main section) is contained in its own little
block of code.
Each block of code starts with a line that tells the web browser how to
format that section.
10. 7
e.g. <div id="main"> YOUR MAIN CONTENT GOES HERE </div>
..defines a block of code that the web browser should format using the
“main” ID that can be found in the style sheet.
This should start to make more sense as we go through this tutorial, so
don't become disheartened if you are finding this difficult.
If we compare the table, and tableless html files, there isn't much
difference in the size of the two pages. However, the look of the CSS
one is crisper and clearer (try looking at both web pages in different
browsers and I think you'll agree).
The positioning of the page layout using CSS is done with pinpoint
accuracy, whereas the page designed with tables is more likely to suffer
problems as you add content (and require graphics to help space out
the columns properly).
OK, now look at this page:
http://ezseonewstutorials.com/csscourse/2/nontable2.htm
http://ezseonewstutorials.com/csscourse/2/nontable2.css
This is the same file as the first CSS layout, but I have edited the
stylesheet. Imagine if you had 100 pages on your site, and you could
change the look of the site, this dramatically, by changing one file. Are
you seeing the potential of CSS? Also note that this file is only 610 bytes –
that’s just one more byte than the previous tableless template. How big
would a template like this be if it were built with tables?
Have a look:
http://ezseonewstutorials.com/csscourse/2/table2.htm
This is a page using tables to achieve the layout. This file is 1249 bytes –
more than twice as large as the CSS one.
IMPORTANT
If you have thought about the space savings, you probably have
wondered about the size of the style sheet. E.g. if my style sheet was 2
11. 8
Kb in size, and the web page was 10Kb in size, doesn’t that mean the
browser needs to download a total of 12 Kb for the page?
Well, yes, and no. You see, the browser will cache the style sheet,
meaning that it will be downloaded once, and remembered and
applied to all pages that use it.
Once the style sheet has been downloaded the first time, the browser
will only need to download the HTML files from then on.
In Summary
In the first two chapter of this course, I hope I have shown you the
potential of CSS.
Starting in the next chapter, I'll be teaching you how to do this, starting at
the absolute beginning, and taking you through it all in baby steps. I will
assume a little HTML knowledge, but otherwise, I am hoping complete
novices can use this tutorial.

"Free eBooks don't often get read, which could be a shame. If people
who download "Creating 'Fat' Affiliate Sites" think it's just another eBook
to store on their hard disk, they will miss out on a wonderful opportunity.
This book is the best affiliate marketing guide I have ever read, at any
cost, and I have bought most of them. I can't beleive this ones free.
Thanks Andy, great job. Pete”.
"How wonderful!!!! I kinda hoped you'd turn it into a pdf. For what it's
worth, this pdf that you give away is better than anything I've purchased
(and I've purchased a lot). I hope that whoever gets it appreciates what
they have - probably the best book on affiliate marketing there is. White

"There are so many ebooks online that are a total waste of money, but
even more importantly a waste of my time. In fact, the sellers should pay
me to read some of them. It was so refreshing to read Dr. Andy Williams’
“Creating Fat Affiliate Sites” ebook. It tells you exactly what to do, what
tools to use, and what steps to take to build profitable affiliate sites that
rank well in the search engines. And hey, guess what, it’s a plan that

actually works! If you are struggling to get started with affiliate marketing
or you are not making the type of money you would like, this ebook will
tie up all the loose ends to get you going quickly. John “
"I have often heard the term over-deliver from marketers who think it
applies to them. With the exception of Ken Evoy, I can't think of anyone
else except Dr. Andy who deserves the title of Mr. Overdeliver. This eBook
is going to be one of the greats in the field of affiliate marketing. Alison”
"Great book Andy. Thanks for all your help. I know you are a busy guy,
yet you always reply to my emails when I ask for help. The course in this
book is so much better than the one by ******* which costs $XXX!!!! .
Bryan”
"Are you crazy giving this away? Andy”
"Hi Dr Andy, Your materials, software and support are 100% responsible
for my current internet success. After trying other methods unsuccessfully
I now make a full time online income.
Your current book sets it out like never before. Even a total beginner (like
I was 12 months ago) could follow this blueprint and earn money online
with the appropriate effort on their part. It won't be fast, but it will work,
because it worked for me. Peter”
"I built my 1st websites using Andy Williams' methods beginning just over 2
years ago and every one of those websites is still indexed in all the major
search engines and they're all still earning money.
Using only Andy's methods and software,as described in "Creating Fat
Affiliate Sites", my websites maintain CTR's of up to 34.2% month in month
out with an average CTR across the range of them of about 14%.
Anybody can take "Creating Fat Affiliate Sites", follow the easy to read
steps, and have their brand new website indexed in days and earning
income from Affiliate programs, Adsense or selling their own products in
less than a week... even a complete newbie. Russell”
"Your "free" ebook is better then most of the paid stuff out there. You
really do go the extra mile. DavidS”

"I would have paid for this book! I love this internet business but with it’s
constant changes I depend on Andy to help keep me up to date. He is
brilliant at what he does and I have the wonderful privilege of learning
from him. This ebook is just another example of how Andy cares about
people and the many hours he spends of his own personal time helping
others to succeed. It may be free but it’s worth your success if you will
take the time to read it. Whether you are a beginner or not this book has
something to offer everyone. It has a step by step plan with all the latest
techniques and ideas. Don’t miss this one or you’ll be missing out on
some very valuable information that is key to your success. Maren”
"Andy - your newsletter is one of the few I actually still subscribe too due
inlarge part to the material you put out with the intent to help your
subscribers make money instead of parting with their money. Your new
ebook is just another example of why manypeople, including myself,
respect what you have to say in regards to online marketing.
Nicely Done!!! Tim “
"I've downloaded your free report "Creating fat affiliate sites"
and I already read half of the way through. I can't believe
you give out for free with this most valuable information. I
have purchased and subscribed so many guru reports and
memberships but so far none of them spills the guts to tell
the truth of the real deal in making affiliate income. In fact,
I suggest you should charge a whole lot for your reports
and definitely worth it. Anthony”
"Thank you, Andy! You have saved me a TON of work. I saved all of those
emails, and was in the process of stripping out the lessons to create my
own ebook to make studying the lessons easier. Now I don't have to.
BTW, it's the quality of the articles you send in your newsletter that makes
it the very first - and sometimes the only - email I open and read as soon
as I receive it. Thank you so much! Mary”
"Dear Dr. Andy, I hereby want to thank you for releasing your latest
ebook "Creating FAT Affiliate Sites". This book simply rocks! I think this is
everything a newby and even advanced affiliate marketeers need to
build their own online affiliate business. I find it really an astonishing piece
of work. It covers step by step instructions on how to build a succesfull
affiliate website and it gives more than plenty of indepth information on
keyword research, writing articles, getting quality traffic and so on. And
the best part of it is that it is completely free.....
I think it is better than most ebooks for which you have to pay for, so
Andy I would really think it over to give this ebook away for nothing...:-).
Again, thank you very much for handing over this great tool for building
a succesfull affiliate website. Kind regards, Max"
