HTML e-mail has transformed Inernet communication from one of standard text correspondence to an environment where users may choose to send and receive messages in the same format as online Web pages.

In past columns, we have investigated the basic structure of HTML tables and their many properties. This showed you how to create basic tables and insert data, images and additional code into them.
Last time we looked at how to insert CSS into the HEAD tags of your HTML pages for formatting within an individual page. Now we show how to create a separate CSS template to link to multiple pages. This will enable you to make formatting changes once, to update your entire site. Additionally, we will review formatting styles and the impact of CSS on the links in your pages.
Integrating Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) into your HTML pages can not only enhance your site, but also make coding easier. In this first of a two-part series, we investigate the language of CSS and how the syntax differs from standard HTML. Next month we will build upon this knowledge and create a working example.
In 'Create your own photogallery: Part I', I began creating an online photo gallery.

Additionally, I discussed how frames were preferable for this type of site so as to speed site loading times further.
