How To Describe CSS?
Add In Blog, CSS on 21 Apr 2008 with 1,889 views
After I posted up the 5 useful CSS Tricks. I received some comments on how to explain what CSS is ? Or maybe how to define CSS? All the comments come after the first comment from Amei who asked “Does CSS code=HTML code?” Then I read some different descriptions after i explain mine. There are a lots of CSS hardcore coder out there and also web designers. I think each of them have their different point of view for CSS, XHTML or maybe Javascript and PHP. It will be fun when we compare it with pur daily life.

HTML is body, CSS is clothes. Show off your body without CSS, naked.

@john, Yes, I think you are right. My comparison is maybe a little bit too far-fetched. Anyhow I could not resist making it.

@dizajn: I like the basic idea of it, except that it makes it sound like CSS is just unnecessary fluff.

How about this. HTML/XHTML is the cake, and all the ORNAMENTS, FIGURINES, TOPPERS and STENCILS is the CSS.

Lets compair it with ourselfs:
XHTML is the personality or character of a person, CSS is all about the looks.
All of you CSS-junkies are shallow and you know it!

(x)HTML is the yard: trees, grass, plants, etc. All the essentials that make a yard what it is. CSS is the landscaping: the placement of the elements, the bark, the pebbles, the lawn gnome, etc. It’s what makes the yard worth looking at and spending time in.
