INFINICART is built with Cascading Style Sheets or CSS. Using CSS althroughout the website has reduced the program size and complexity because the pages do not contain too much presentation markups.
In simpler terms, the looks or aesthetic design of a skinnable site such as INFINICART is much easier to modify. You only need to edit the corresponding CSS files -- not the program codes!
"CSS is used by both the authors and readers of web pages to define colors, fonts, layout, and other aspects of document presentation. It is designed primarily to enable the separation of document content (written in HTML or a similar markup language) from document presentation (written in CSS). This separation can improve content accessibility, provide more flexibility and control in the specification of presentational characteristics, and reduce complexity and repetition in the structural content. CSS can also allow the same markup page to be presented in different styles for different rendering methods, such as on-screen, in print, by voice (when read out by a speech-based browser or screen reader) and on braille-based, tactile devices. Similarly, identical HTML or XML markup can be displayed in a variety of styles, 'brands', liveries or color schemes by using different CSS." - wikipedia
