A Content Management System (CMS) is an application designed to update and maintain the content on a website.  In other words, it saves you the time and hassle of having to download files from your website, edit them, test them to see if the edits are good and upload them back to your website.  A CMS is a great way to publish your content online without having to know a single thread of HTML.

	<i>Note: This article is going to be focusing mainly on configuring Apache in 
a Linux environment. I'm going to assume you have a basic working knowledge of 
Linux already; if you're new to the game, read my previous article first. Windows 
users take heart; the information contained in this article is just as 
useful for you! </i>

	<P>This is the first part of a series geared towards getting you,
the average web monkey, up to speed on Linux.  I don&#8217;t have the space here
to teach you everything you need to know about Linux, but by the end of this
article you&#8217;ll hopefully know enough to stay out of trouble.</P>

	</div>
	
	<br />
	<P>If you&#8217;ve read my first two articles in the CSS for
Boneheads series,
<A TARGET=_blank HREF="http://infocenter.cramsession.com/techlibrary/gethtml.asp?ID=1579">Part 1</A>
and
<A TARGET=_blank HREF="http://infocenter.cramsession.com/techlibrary/gethtml.asp?ID=1580">Part 2</A>,
then you already know how powerful a tool CSS can be.  For those of you who are
just joining us, CSS is an add-on to HTML, which allows you to control the look
and feel of your web documents.  </P>

<P>In this article, I&#8217;m going to show you how to make your
web documents print perfectly under CSS compliant browsers.  Not only will they
fit the page properly, they&#8217;ll strip out the things not needed in the
printed world, such as navigation.</P>

	</div>
	
	<br />
	<p><em>Note: For this article, I'm going to assume you have some very basic knowledge of 
CSS already.  If you're totally new to CSS, please read my earlier article, 
<a target=_blank href="http://infocenter.cramsession.com/techlibrary/gethtml.asp?ID=1579">
CSS for Boneheads - Part 1</a>, which gets into the basic structure of CSS and its implementation.</em>

You've been using <b>&lt;table&gt;</b> to create great, complicated layouts for years now &#8212; 
why change something that's obviously working?  The honest truth is it isn't.  <b>&lt;table&gt;</b> 
was never intended to be used as a layout tool, or for anything more complicated than simple tabular data.  
Table-based design was an early hack for creating more complicated designs in the days of Netscape 2 and 3.  
Designers soon caught on to the idea, and started creating origami-like HTML featuring layers upon layers
of nested tables.  This was all fine and dandy for the designer, but put a major processing load on the 
client's computer.
