No, nothing like it. Inline styles are fine in their place and (in some
cases, such as lots of absolute positioning) certainly better than huge
dynamically generated CSS documents.

Compare ASP (lots of in-line code) and good Java server-side code (no
in-line code, and the tools to make this possible) though. If someone
learns ASP first, they're ruined for Java. Conversely the only way to
get good ASP coders is to teach them JSP and Servlets first.
