Ok so i'm new when it comes to the world of web design. My HTML/CSS skills are basic.
And i'm a little confused about something: when i see sites like for example YouTheDesigner you see all those entries and they automatically update to the newest. That's not via HTML/CSS right? i assume it has something to do with a CMS or somehing right? Sorry if i sound too newbie i'm just a beginner:D

Hello,

I think link below may help you with understanding basics of "Dynamic web pages"

For the most part you can update the look, but not the content using CSS. Therefore, if each entry looks the same and has the same class tags then each entries appearance can be controlled through a limited number of styles. However, what you can't do if update the actall(html) content using CSS. That would need to be done on the server side with a server side scripting language.

Does that clear it up?
