I use Style Sheets on the Unofficial Stargrunt II Web Site
(http://stargrunt.virtualave.net) and they work well, and (I believe)
don't
cause any real problems with older browsers. They just don't see
whatever
effects you're presenting. So my advice is to keep it simple - change
the
look of links etc by all means, but still keep older tags in the main
text.

Also one thing I noticed is that while the text rollovers I've done in
CSS
appear in IE, they don't in Netscape. That's competition for you.

Jeremy
