That HOW-TO documentation is very helpful, but it didn't seem to say a thing about CSS. Until the default skin is table-less, I think you're generally out of luck unless you have a lot of time on your hands to take out all of the table tags and turn them into "divs". I'm currently fooling with Land Down Under, a "website engine" using PHP/mySQL. There are some people who are working on CSS/tableless skins. I'm not sure how close they are, though.

I know this is an old post and all, but I'm new to the community here and thought I'd add my comments. I tried to build a site with PHP-Nuke once. I found it too difficult. I think it did what I wanted it to, but it was too much trouble to make it look less like a generic PHP-Nuke site. I'm currently looking into Land Down Under, a "website engine" built on PHP/mySQL. It looks pretty promising.

I just switched to WordPress from Movable Type. My understanding was that rebuilding pages is hard on the server. Is building pages "on the fly" harder? Part of the reason I just switched was because WordPress is open source, so I see it never having limitations in where it can go. Plus it's interface feels cleaner and it makes more sense to login directly to the new post form. I don't know. I love Movable Type. This switch may be temporary. I really didn't need all of the functionality of Movable Type for a simple weblog. Anyways, as to not derail the "web design bookmark" post, that's a nice list, especially for people interested or learning about web standards and using CSS to build sites. I'm about to bookmark the CSS Template site. That's GREAT stuff. One stop shopping so I never have to build my own two or three column CSS site!
