About the presentation
----------------------

Cascading Style Sheets are a way to separate the content and structure
of a web page from the stylistic elements. This allows:
- the style to be changed without changing the content
- better accessibility for folks with visual impairments
- better processing by search engines
- ease of maintenance by letting designers and content
producers to work in parallel

In this session, Ted will show why separating CSS from HTML makes sense,
and how to do it. He'll review the basics of what CSS is, how the
elements are combined, what 'cascade' refers to, and how to use CSS to
specify layout using the CSS box model. He'll finish up with some
suggestions on tools to use and references for further study.
