Anyone using any of the new CSS frameworks? I tried 960.gs to see what "separation of concerns" really feels like. Drupal added support I see. Its logical to have a reset.css and a text.css, so why not a layout resource that you dont touch either? Makes fine sense to me, and I was impressed how nice it is to have a stable scaffold for the page, and how simple and fast and readable was my own 'developer' style sheet. I am also looking into the emerging second tier tools now, like http://www.gridsystemgenerator.com/ [1] , or http://wiki.github.com/chriseppstein/compass [2] . As far as PHP for forms goes, I like that Code Igniter allows the designer to specify layout, then I found this posting for Zend Framework: http://www.zendframeworkexpert.co.uk/2009/06/09/using-a-view-script-to-render-a-zend_form_element/ [3] . Also playing ZF with forms framework like http://www.rmsjr.com/blog/web-design/rmsforms-a-flexible-tableless-css-forms-framework/ [4] for ZF and generating client side validations ( eg http://jquery.bassistance.de/validate/demo [5] ) that slot into the framework. Evangelising ends. Merry XMAS anyways.
