Creating Style Sheets (CSS) with HTML Editors

Some HTML Editors have handy features for creating style sheets. You won’t find this frill in the free Nvu editor, but it you will in Frontpage and Dreamweaver. That’s why these last two editors are expensive, they give handy features compare to those free editors.

To create a style sheet or simply CSS in Frontpage, choose File>New to show the “New page” task window on the right. Then click the “More page templates” link to show the Page Templates tab. You’ll see a list of predefined templates - choose one of these and you’ll start off with a pile of color coordinated rules you can apply to a Web page right away.

Dreamweaver is better than Frontpage. It also includes prebuilt style sheets. Choose File> New and then select Templates tab in the New Document dialog box. Not only you will see list of style sheet, but you’ll also see a small preview window that shows you a sample what the rules in the style sheet look alike.
