		<description><![CDATA[Presently there is still uncertainty regarding the superiority of table-less CSS designing over the older table-based design techniques. Here are some of the benefits of CSS design and reasons why it is preferred in modern web development]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>In 1996 the W3C (World Wide Web Consortium) introduced CSS (<strong>Cascading Style Sheets</strong>) to establish the difference between representation i.e. Layout, fonts, colors, backgrounds etc and actual content within the page such as written copy, images and multimedia. Another important aim is to improve <strong>user accessibility</strong>.<span id="more-431"></span></p>
<p>CSS will tell the HTML page how to display its content and can be stored as an external file so it is sometimes referred to as <strong>external style sheets</strong>. In earlier web development days, styling and page layout was defined using tables. After some dynamic technological advances a new concept is followed for web designing known as <strong>table-less CSS design</strong>.</p>
<p>Presently there is still uncertainty regarding the superiority of <strong>table-less CSS designing</strong> over the older table-based <strong>design techniques</strong>. Here are some of the benefits of <strong>CSS design</strong> and reasons why it is preferred in modern <strong>web development</strong>;</p>
<ul>
<li>Designers      have more freedom &amp; flexibility over creative layout and themes.</li>
<li><strong>CSS design</strong> helps <strong>improve search engine rankings</strong> due      to crawling ease.</li>
<li>External      CSS files can be a central point of design and easily maintained.</li>
<li>A      website’s look &amp; feel can be completely altered by simply adjusting      the CSS file.</li>
<li>CSS      designs help reduce the size of the HTML files thus making them load      faster.</li>
<li><strong>CSS website design</strong> improves      accessibility significantly.</li>
<li>CSS      designing allows you to have different layouts and designs for different      media types.</li>
</ul>
<p><img style="margin:20px;float:left" src="http://blog.wsioms.co.za/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/css-web-design.jpg" alt="Benefits of CSS tableless design" />It is observed that by using <strong>CSS tableless design</strong> a website can be more usable and accessible as well as helping us improve search engine rankings.</p>
