Hi,

I am developing a website and am wondering if it is possible to use cgi
with css??? If so, how does it differ from using html???

Thanks!!!

CGI, CSS, and HTML are all vastly different things. No one of them can
in any way replace or substitute for either of the others.

Until you understand what each of them are, you shouldn't be asking how
to use one with the other.

HTML defines the structure of a web document.
CSS defines the style of a web document
CGI is an interface for generating dynamic content on a server and
sending it back to a web browser. The content itself might be images,
plaintext, HTML, CSS, or anything else.

Perhaps it's time for you to ask about what it is you're actually
trying to accomplish...
