-J Not to nitpick but PHP is still a flexible programing language and has MANY uses outside the realm of dynamic websites.

Ritu I've never used Advanced Access, but if you can specify different id and class values for different elements you should be able to use your own CSS file. They don't need any 'software' to make use of CSS as it's a client side technology, which means that it's up to the client accessing the website (the user, search engine spider, or whatever) to make use of the information contained in the style sheet.

-J What part of my post did you not understand? PHP is mainly a construct to handle DATA, period. CSS is mainly a construct to handle layout, period. Yes you can do layout with PHP, but all your really doing is telling the PHP to write the CSS (or HTML to control layout) or pull DATA to construct a style sheet, etc. Again, PHP for data, CSS to control layout. Am I clear now? -J

Calm down there buddy, I didn't misunderstand you. I was just pointing out that PHP can do a lot more than just pull data out of whatever, people seem to forget that.

Quit making assumptions and then you won't get the gist that I'm getting hostile...
I never said that PHP could ONLY "pull data"... if you read what I posted, I said that it is mainly used to work with data, and it is; while CSS is mainly used to work with layout, of course you can do all kinds of things other than those two with each one but that does not mean it is best practice. I could use Javascript to read from a text file database to pull data to populate data in my website, doesn't mean you should though.

To the uninformed it sounds like PHP is only used to pull data out of a database for a dynamic page. I was just doing some PHP advocating by informing others reading this thread that PHP is more than just that.

Like I said, I didn't put the "only" quantifier in there, but maybe I should have added "manipulating" to the "pulling/capturing" and we wouldn't be having this discussion.
