Just me, and I am not the one to address CSS or Coding of any type. Try Support instead, to the attention of Hank.

Naval, Vasili, Ladyeye, anyone? Would really appreciate an answer to this question.

I see the value of using an external style sheet to manage styles across multiple pages of a site. And if I understand BV correctly, it automatically generates (1) a basic internal style sheet (below) when you create a new page and (2) inline styles as you add content to the page.

So my question is: At what point in the process should I create an external style sheet? And whenever I do, if I want it to control the major style aspects of one or more pages, will I have to go through those pages' code and delete the inline styles in elements that I want the external CSS to style? Seems like I shouldn't have to do that, but I don't know.

<style type="text/css">
div#container
{
width: 800px;
height: 600px;
margin-top: 0px;
margin-left: 0px;
text-align: left;
}
</style>
<style type="text/css">
body
{
background-color: #FFFFFF;
color: #000000;
}
</style>
<style type="text/css">
a:hover
{
color: #000000;
}
</style>
