Start with content. Then structure it. Then describe it with the best
semantic markup. Then make it accessible (with proper use of
accessibility elements/attributes: label, accesskey, summary, alt,
scope, etc.). If you do these first parts correctly, then your webpage
should render accordingly in various media (screen, print, handheld,
aural, etc). Then, and only then, style it with CSS. And then
javascript, if needed to enhance presentation, is after styling.

Ed Seedhouse gave you an excellent answer.
