custom elements please let me know.

New Templates

• Until now, our CommonSpot templates have been table based– Hampers use of CSS to style pages– Makes site-wide modification of pages

difficult– Makes modifying site appearance almost

impossible.

New Templates

• Starting Monday, October 22– CSS based templates– More control over pages styling– Easier to change entire site by changing

one file without having to rebuild all the pages.

Effects:

• Will not change any existing pages or templates.

• Can continue to make pages from existing table based templates.
