The stylesheet tip is a good one. I've taken 28K stylesheets and, by not stacking each element beneath the next, cut it at least in half. That also makes it easier to read; it's okay where there are only a few styles, but as the stylesheet gets longer, it's blinding.

So change this:

body {color: #000000;

margin: 0px;

padding: 0px;

font-family: arial, verdana, sans-serif;

}

to this:

body {color:#000; margin:0; padding:0; font-family:arial,verdana,sans-serif}

Tidy. I like a tidy stylesheet. :)

[Oops; the software double-spaced my first style example]

That's a great idea, but there are stylesheet resizers, that remove all of the blank spaces automatically from your stylesheet. It's less work.

Thanks for this I have a couple slow loading sites. I went to staples and asked for their easy button but apparently it's just a gimmick.

I'm glad you liked it Hustlin :)
