Advantage and Disadvantages of CSS Frameworks
You don’t have to write the same CSS-code or (X)HTML-Markup over and over again. Whatever project you’re starting to work with, at some point you have to define classes and IDs you’ve already defined in your previous web-projects. To avoid unnecessary mistakes you might want to start not from a blank file, but from an almost “perfect” scratch. The latter might contain some basic definitions you’d write in your code anyway. However, once you’ve decided to create such a scratch, you need to make sure it is really bulletproof — besides, if the stylesheet also sets up optimal typographic rules and basic form styling you manage to kill two birds with one stone.
A Closer Look At the Blueprint CSS Framework
Blueprint is a CSS framework that can save you time and headaches when working on any project that involves HTML and CSS, whether it be with Rails, PHP, or just laying out an HTML page.

When one builds out many designs with HTML and CSS, one finds that there are a handful of the same of problems you solve each and every time. Among them: Resetting browser defaults to create a blank slate. Setting up layout and baseline grids for your design to adhere to. Creating sane defaults for type sizes, alignment, and spacing. And more. Wouldn’t it be handy to have this stuff taken care of ahead of time, so you can get to the really fun stuff designers love?

A Detailed Look at the 960 CSS Framework
If you’ve ever read a tutorial on a CSS framework, I can guarantee that many comments mimic the previous statements. My guess is that the majority of these comments are stemmed from slight ignorance. Once you take the opportunity to spend some time with 960, you’ll be amazed at how much time can potentially be saved when developing your web applications. At the very least, take ten minutes to review the framework. You can always press the delete key…though I doubt you will!
