Form
Now that we have discussed the concept of content, we must move onto the other half of the Internet's organization: Form. Form consists of all the aesthetic effects we place on our content, as well as its placement on the page.
Content was handled by the use of XHTML code. While we tried to stress the concept of semantic tagging, we also attempted to stress how important it is to not format your content while marking it up in XHTML. By using a stylesheet language such as CSS, we can put our content in almost any form we can imagine, all without changing the original XHTML tagging!
This is of vital importance to web site creators and maintainers alike when you consider the power that one has when they only have to write content once, and then by utilizing different stylesheets, can put an innumerable amount of faces on that content!
For an example of this, visit the following link:
For uses of this class, we have put together another sample XHTML file; except this time, we have included a CSS file as well, so you can see how they interact with one another (both are required for the demonstration to work properly).
