If you want to play opinion-tennis (it's quite useful on forums in my opinion) regarding possible down-sides of CSS I can play on the home team.

Shoot me something you consider a negative point with CSS and I'll try to flip the coin by either showing that it isn't so or that it just isn't as negative as you might think at first (how trixy). No points, winners, or losers of course. It's just a fun way to share knowledge and experience in.

On a second thought, we might need another thread for that. :P

In short though, in my long years as a developer I have never felt any downsides with CSS once I "mastered" it (you can't really master any language in my opinion, but in relative terms).

Thanks for you comments guys!!
This tutorial was really helpful for me, because loading time of my site was about 40-50 seconds with everything.
Removing some code, link to external files (.js and .css) really helped my site to improve loading time, so I recommend to everyone who need it.

You must be on 56k?

40 seconds is a LONG time.

No, about 512k..
It loaded so slow because of the ads I placed on my site. All code loaded in 10 seconds or less, but all those ads made my site extremely slow.
I could make it better reading the tutorial, so I recommend you it.

Very true what this article states, I have started to code my sites using CSS. It also takes a higher level of skill to develop sites completely relying on CSS thus showing your more knowledgeable clients of your coding skills.
