   Well… actually the author is promoting the approach of separating design from content, and applying a variety of designs to that content as befits the browser/platform/device used to view the site: “By building sites that separate style from content we are free to display the same pages in as many ways as our imagination will allow. We can have bells and whistles for the new browsers, we can have attractive and readable designs for the version 4 browsers, we can display the content legibly for older browsers, devices that do not support CSS. We can create stylesheets for different media types – print and even aural, so that the visually impaired get a great listening experience on our site.” I don’t believe they are recommending simple design to solve all browser issues, platforms etc., even though that approach is listed as a possibility.
