Hi Kim,
1. I've read conflicting reports on whether Netscape is going to support CSS.
It's my understanding that they intend to something and call it CSS. The main problem with NN implementations that I've encountered in the past has been that they tend to barely implement the standard and then proceed to "enhance" what has only been partially addressed to begin with.
2. Any ideas what percentage of web sites are gearing up to convert to or are currently using CSS on their sites? Any documentation on this?
I've yet to see any collection of this type of data, or that it's being reported.
3. Do you think that when CSS are a standard most web sites will adopt them, or just web sites that are art/style oriented?
Business and large organization sites will love the consistency that they can apply to their sites from just a few controlling documents. I use three style sheet documents to apply consistency the entire suite of pages at the FSU Geology Department. My personal pages are more art/style oriented, and I use style that is internal to each page, even though this means that some items are duplicated.
4. If most sites do adopt them, will it be immediate, or will it take a year or more for CSS to really become standard?
Good question. I think that once CSS has become widely spread via browser implementation, that it will catch on quickly. The MSIE community seems to be well on its way.
5. Do you think the average surfer is going to take the time to learn enough about CSS to override an author's sheet?
In a way I hope that's not the case! But, I suppose it depends on how that functionality is implemented. It isn't hard to imagine a page that is presentation quality being turned into "the ugliest page on the web."
