No, no! The lecturey stuff is good! And I need to be smacked around a little for not using it myself anymore--the only web stuff I do these days is for work, and I just use Dreamweaver and the in-house CSS and basically sleep at the wheel. It's bad. My web skills are getting a big ass. They need to be taken out and walked around the lake a little bit.
And yeah, it's funny, I don't think a lot of sites do use CSS yet, which is weird when you consider how cool a concept it is. It's very hard to explain to brand-new web publishers (who are the folks I teach) why they should separate form from content in the first place. They want to use and and and all that stuff, because it's fun! Funny fun fun! And I don't blame them. I agree, it's fun, and it's instant gratification, and centering stuff using CSS is a huge pain in the ass. But still. Overall, it's good.
So anyway, we're trying to breed CSS-users here. Or at least, CSS-understanders. It's going...well, uh, since I'm the teacher and I don't use or understand them all that well...I'd say, fair to middling.
