So just for the hell of it, I hit the Top Style 'stylesweeper', and
bingo! Everything was nicely laid out.
I love TopStyle's stylesweeper - before a site goes live, I use it to
remove all extra spaces (to reduce download time). If I want to work on

Don't forget that it also has a lot to do with what you're using to
edit the files. I use jEdit with it's "folding" functionality set to
indent which means...
div.row span.left
{
float: left;
text-align: left;
font-weight: bold;
color: #fff;
width: 49%;
}
My brace style of use is K&R (Kernighan and Ritchie -- or what you call
'goofy') but I prefer to read GNU style, then BSD style (what you called
'lined up method').
I guess it goes back to my C programming days. If wateva team I'm
working with doesn't like it then it's only 2 lines of perl to c
I agree, it's a personal preference more than anything else. I can say
from the butt-load of site's I looked at, the vast majority used the
"goofy" style. I personally choose that way when I code because it's
what I'm used to and comfortable with.
The one that drives me nuts is what someone c
Yeah sorry Russ :)

Yeah?
Im all for TAB indentation (I set my tabs to be a width of 4 Spaces)
:)
Tabs are more definable, I use SOURCEEDIT...
And when I turn on the SHOW WHITESPACE, all the Dots as spaces are very
irritating...

talking about personal preferences.
Whitespace inside a declaration block is ignored - so it can be used to lay
out rules or rules sets in any way you
I'll put my hand up for the "goofy style." It's my preference, my habit
- be it CSS rules, functions, CFScript, what have you.
In a team environment, I'd use whatever style made it easier for the
whole team to concentrate on the work at hand.
What's next? Space or tab indentation? :)

This is great flamewar material, dude :).
I adhere pretty closely to the K&R style (opening curly bracket on the
same line as the selector [or function or class definition, or
conditional, or whatever]), mostly because it conserves the most space

Hmm.
Email programs aren't really the best for coding, some of the carriage

Yeah,
Thats my opinion too!
But every tutorial website I see (well most)...
Use the IMO - "goofy" method..
I mean why have the Open bracket on the top line?
It makes it so hard to find the opening, because its not inline with
anything!
So far its:

Properly lined up is better IMHO
div.row span.left

is much easier to work with especially when the program you're
developing highlights matching open/close brackets.
