Was tasked with assisting in a web site redesign at work. Thankfully, I was not the one in the lead of designing the web site. I provided my technical expertise at fixing things.

Well, it was decided that instead of a table-based layout we should use a CSS-based layout. Okay….

I know just about nothing with CSS-based layouts as I didn’t know we were going to do them. The HTML editors I’ve used suck at working with them. I’d hoped that Dreamweaver MX would be better.

Apparently not… *sigh*
