Comment Re:Too bad CSS isn't better at layout (Score 2, Insightful) 154

Seperating layout from content isn't such a big deal either IMO because a) 99% of the time your html has to be in a very specific order for your layout to work, not to mention the 8000 wrapper divs and what not you have.

If designed properly, the order of your XHTML will matter very little when seperating layout from content. Also, designating many different div tags as wrappers is needless in most situations. You just need to think through a layout idea before coding a single line.

b) Most websites run off a scripted/coded backend where most of the content is pulled from a database anyways

Regardless of where the information for a page comes from, you are always in control of how it is rendered to the browser. The rendered XHTML, CSS, and Javascript is where the seperation of layout, content, and behavior is helpful.
