Thanks, Kieran, that looks like a great book.

I need to be more specific, however; this is a very WO-centric question. I want to be able to have a header and footer on each page, include a CSS, and so forth. What's the best way to do that? In past lives I've done this sort of thing with server side includes and with a very fancy templating system, neither of which are available here. I haven't been able to find anything in the WO docs that talks about this sort of thing - surely the answer isn't to paste the HTML into every page-level component! :)

thanks,

janine

This is my favorite book on making it look pretty (you may need to remove line-breaks from these long URLs):

I also recommend having YUI reset-fonts-grids as a base foundation to your CSS ....... it makes it easier to have cross-browser/cross- platform CSS consistency.

I've got my application working more or less the way I want it to; now I want to make it look nice, and I'd like to do something a bit more sophisticated and less inefficient than putting duplicate HTML in all my components. But I can't find any sort of documentation on how this should be done. I'm still searching, but thought I would also ask for pointers here. What's the "best practice" for a simple app?

thanks,

janine
