Still Using Inline Styles?

[espmartin]

I absolutely love CSS, and before I learned about semantical
standards (separation of content from presentation), I used
inline styles heavily. But once I got the fact that external
cascading style sheets made life a whole lot easier when you
had to make style changes sitewide, I stopped using styles inline.

How many of you could benefit from externalizing your style rules?

With you all the way not using inline styles, i believe the sitening seo tool marks down your websites grade if you use them, will have to check.

In my eyes its far easier editing a simple css file rather then masses of markup code on your VALID html pages

Every once in a while if I need to edit single element on single page I may use inline style but 99% of the time it's external styles

I/m the same as SkinnerW, I use external CSS almost exclusively. If you style using classes, it can sometimes be better to have a simple inline style to customise a single element by modifying an existing class that almost fits rather than create a whole new class.

No! Never use inline CSS!

[Gilligan]

Same here, always use external stylesheets

Sometimes, mostly when the site is huge I use inline css, but this is not so general. I rather place the style control lines into external css and javascript files.

I have a nasty habit of putting inline styles in while I'm developing and then having to go back through and move them somewhere external afterwards!!!

Well it would be easier to update styles in bulk.
