That's the approach I've taken - CSS _is_ hard and you either just
stick with the templates you've been given, or you come back for the
next course.
One of my core aims was that (nearly) everyone should understand
everything they've been taught, right from the beginning. I teach a
very partial course, and I don't teach dancing penguins. But what they
have covered, they've covered well and accurately.
I _know_ that my students all snuck off with a copy of frontpage and
stuck <blink> or ActiveXs everywhere afterwards. But at least they did
understand the fundamentals properly. I don't need to talk about the
pointless gewgaws, they'll find those soon enough on their own.
