Setven,
I'm aware of some of the CSS 2.0 visual formating model issues with
older browsers. CSS 2.1 RC addresses the major ones.

I'm most concerned with creation of XHTML/CSS 2.0 valid pages. Next on
my list is, WAI semantically correct pages. Last is CSS visual
formatting that gracefully degrades with older browsers.

Yep. Very nice css example that's referenced often as a good
implementation of content separation from presentation.

I'm working on mirroring instructions. It is possible to run phpWebSite
on Windows, but the setup is harder. Drop by irc.freenode.net
#phpwebsite, if you need help getting phpWebSite running on Windows.

phpWebSite 0.9.4 should be out this summer.

 Also, depending on what you use, IE 5.5 may break ifyou go entirely css
compliant.  Mozilla Firefox also can render things in an interesting
manner.  Layout can be tables with font, formatting placement controlled
by css.  

BTW:  Have you seen zengarden?

I love this one http://www.csszengarden.com/?cssfile=069%2F069%2Ecss but
it is not pratical for a tech site.  

I almost had phpWebsite up, stupid path failures. :( but for my external
web server I am limited to Win32 and between my new son, work and
restarting school, I don't have time to bring up the Linux box and get
it working after I built it again.  I'll need to get it working again so
I can build some themes for the contest.   When's 0.94 slated for
release?

manner that won't cost me my job :)
