Ok, so Less. Js has come along, and it seems that my dreams of creating a CSS framework (especially a 'grid' system), with an 'abstracted' CSS language might be about to come true. That is, 960 and Blueprint are great and all... but it so irked me to put style information in HTML markup, such as: class="article grid_4 pull_2" or whatever the syntax was :) So, now it seems that we can do it this way: .

Article { . Grid_container(); . Grid_four(); .

Pull_two(); .last(); } Weeeeeee! So, I'm about to get stuck into developing this for myself -- but I'm sure there are some brainiacs out there that have already done it -- so before I get into any heavy lifting...? Any leads? Kindly Daryl.

Ok, so I'm on the way to getting this done. Surely I'm not the first one to do this? – Daryl Sep 11 '10 at 12:35.

This is the CSS framework you're looking for - http://semantic. Gs/ The Semantic Grid System - Page layout for tomorrow. Set column and gutter widths, choose the number of columns, and switch between pixels and percentages.

All without any ugly . Grid_x classes in your markup. Oh, and did we mention it's responsive?

Brought to you by LESS. Js and the creator of 1KB Grid.

Right on. I had created and used my own... similar to the api you've created -- with px or fluid (albeit mine wasn't perfect) – Daryl Sep 25 '11 at 22:35 happy to submit to the masters... have you attempted to address vertical and typographic flow too? – Daryl Sep 25 '11 at 22:35.

I checked out less , it was a push between that and the new sass (scss) syntax, but what made me choose sass is that it has a way to turn css into scss code. The round trip was something I definitely wanted. Once that happened, then Compass presented itself.

I was going to try using something to code everything in python, but it makes perfect sense to me to preprocess the css, especially since I'd like to use HTML5, and if the spec changes, then I can tweak the generation.

BTW folks, I've started that framework I was talking about. github.com/DarylAntony/lesser I'm having fun with it.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
