I've seen two things that bug me. Bloat from junk code and cross browser issues (both have more to do with the developer but a product of the tool). Still comes down to needing to know how to hack this stuff by hand and how it works at a fundamental level. I've spent so much time hacking back junk code from pages to reduce bloat (keeping in mind a lot of that was in dial-up days). <BR>

I trend towards keeping things simple. Design simple and maintain as simple as possible. But the stuff I deal with lately is not large-scale enterprise stuff so my sandbox is much smaller now. Even when it was we built simple tools for low-end users to work with. In that way we created a WYSIWYG and is a bit of an oxymoron in the context of this thread....<BR>

Properly done anything works better (agreed). But too often I see CSS used wrong...<BR>

For my curiosity, how does one misuse CSS? I could see if one is constantly adding id's and classes for one-off formatting to a page might be a problem. Also, not breaking up the stylesheets in a large project so each sheet is easier to understand.
