I have been looking over my notes and reference books on this topic debating whether to have an external style sheet or not. As I am wanting to keep my website very simple I thought initially it might not be necessary; I am now convinced otherwise.
I have been looking at Niederst Robbins (2007, p. 193) recommendations that 'this is the most powerful and preferred method for attaching style sheets to content.' and this has helped me decide on this course of action.
Tomorrow I am planning on putting the bulk of the text required into the (X)HTML which is what I have also decided to complete my final project in. I don't feel that I have played around with HTML 5 sufficiently at this stage to use it so have opted for the former. I will need to do a basic content audit on what I have to generally tidy up what is there and help me decide what should go where in the website. As this is essentially an online resume some of the material is really quite dated as the last job I applied for was over three years ago.
I am also going to be fixing up my draft system plan over this weeked as it was definitely in draft format when it was put up there a few weeks ago. Having spent some time thinking about what I can get done and what won't get done the draft needs some updating.
