Which site?  You mean the webforum?  There are lots of us who wouldn't touch
that webforum with a 10 foot pole!

Yes.

The positioning used on the webforums is pretty simple.  It is compliant
with all v5+ browsers.  NN4x may not like it alot, but such is life.

It depends on which professionals you ask.  I like CSS positioning.  There
are those who don't.  Visit my portfolio and you will see sites that are all
ordinary HTML, all CSS-P, and in between.  I use what I need to use for the
job at hand....

So I guess I would like to take a look at the style sheet for this page... C
an
I fish around with the style sheet file name and various paths to download i
t?
I guess I should look at the Web Developer tools in Firefox. There are tons 
of
cool page viewing methods, theres got to be one to view the stylesheet. Just
thinking out loud. I'm starting to worry that my design style is waaaay
outdated. (Tables for all element placement, client-side image maps, CSS onl
y
for text formatting, and some table attributes, at least I am using PHP/MySQ
L
for dynamic content, so I'm not totally out-dated...)

Absolutely. FireFox is quickly becoming a must-have tool for web developers.

With Firefox, you can visit a site, view the css along side it, and actually
edit it to see what changing different things will do the layout. VERY cool
tool.
