If you don't have to routinely update your CSS and extend the sites you design's content with new formatting you clearly aren't working on sites that are heavy in demand and drive a lot of diverse content.

More to the point, you're not working that deeply with CSS 2, let alone 3 if that's the case. One of the main reasons for separating the structure from the formatting is to extend the reuse of the structure to other viewports.

SIncerely,

I disagree. It's useful to have everything on a single file (if there
are no images), for instance you can pipe the result to stdout for
scripts and things like that. What benefit do you get by splitting the
html and the css? I split them all the time on my web projects, but
it's rare to have to further edit / maintain these files, and you're
going to break existing scripts / pipelines if you change the default
behaviour. I think you need a very good reason to do that.

On second thought, what if I provide the old behavior via a switch?  I
think that the separate CSS file is the better default behavior.

Thanks, --josh

Experienced web developers always separate their CSS from their HTML
file
This makes maintenance and overriding of the styling much easier, as
well
as keeping the HTML file itself (nearly) completely content / semantics
focused.

In the complex mode, I would like to separate out the styling into a
separate CSS file, referenced from the output HTML file.  Any
objections
to this?
I'd prefer if you added this through a flag other than modifying the
behaviour
(since people always complain when you change the behavoiur of something)

I am also cleaning up the tags so that they are all balanced and XHTML,
hence XML-compliant.
Makes sense, but please make this a separate patch.

Once this is done along with CSS separated out, I'm
not sure of a need for a separate ­xml mode for pdftohtml.  Thoughts on
this?

Thanks, --josh
