so after a long time, I am trying to get back to learning html/css. I came across a video regarding OOCSS, is anyone using this method? From the video she basiclly says dont use Id’s for styling, and a few other things I havnt got my head around. Is this basiclly a better way to learn css? The tuotirals I am going through and videos use all the methods she says not to use, infact by the videos and tutorials I have seen, people are just suing bad coding methods according to her presentation. So am I really learning css properly by using videos or even tutorials that are like 3+ years old. There is nothing really on Object orientated css coding I can find other than the womans presentations. This is the link to the video.
What a pile of none semantic trash. sizeXofY – give me a break…
IDs and classes should be used to describe contents true purpose, not as “magical” presentational styling hooks. Its just about as bad as using color or font names to style elements with a class library.
Styling libraries promote presentational naming, which while creative and maybe even clever introduces presentation into the document structure which is flat out incorrect.
So I take it you guys dont agree with anything this woman has to say? By watching the video , Im assuming she must be prety big person in the web development field, if shes cosulted at Yahoo, and facebook asked her for consultation.
I guess this thread can be merged with the one I made in the css section.
