CSS

So, one question may be, how can we produce stylesheets with maximum
accuracy, ease and flexibility?  To get very specific, can anyone provide
testimony for Homesite's ability to produce CSS?  Any other editors?  I
would like to get a decent hybrid editor, and I was unimpressed with the
latest version of Hot Dog.  To my complete shame, right now I'm using Word,
which produces hideously wrong webpages, but I've been stalling while I
waited to hear more about editors people are using these days.  It seems
the pool of available editors hasn't changed much in the last few months,
though.

Btw, re CSS and accessibility... the guidelines from W3C are interesting; I
read them as, use style sheets... but don't make your pages CSS dependent.
  According to the document, the main argument for designing pages so they
are not totally CSS dependent is for downward compatibility.  CSS appear to
offer some very appealing features for enhancing accessibility.
