    How do you guys design your css/xhtml pages? i had previous design which was done with xhtml/css but of separate css for each page. Then recently, i was informed to create a design and make it as template (dwt) to make the main structure intact and also to speed up work flow. I realized it's really useful to use template to make the layout consistent and also to have control of semantics over a growing pages. im still new to using template but i think it's a good idea. what are your thoughts? advantage and disadvantage (if any) ? thanks.

    It is a very useful tool for creating standard pages quickly.

    I've been building pages with server side include files along with CSS. I keep the site design consistent throughout the site use a single or multiple style sheets. The design can easily changed on every page by editing one of the SSI or CSS files.

    Using SSI's & CSS is a huge plus but also using the template feature to quickly build the basic coded pages will speed things up.
