As a general rule, it will be saner for you to markup the footer and handle the formatting in the css file. (e.g., <div class="footer">... your footer stuff </div>; then the appropriate markup in css). This lets you think about the "footer" as its own object, and format it/change formatting as you please--or as you need to, over time, and keeps you from burying crucial formatting information where you will forget to look at it, or may not notice it for what it is when it is late at night and you're making "just a quick change."<br>
<br>It is also good, if you can, to go through current HTML so that you aren't using deprecated markup (<center> is a long-deprecated tag). In practice, of course, things will run fine with the deprecated code, but then you've added an extra variable when you are troubleshooting, and won't be able to validate the HTML on the page to help troubleshoot.<br>

Hi,<br><br>What's the protocol for layout and design with Drupal? Should I place formatting items in the css file, or is it alright to do the formatting in Drupal? For example, in the footer section I have the organizations address and phone number. If I want to bold and center the address and phone number, can I just add <center> address </center> in the footer section, or should the <center> tag go into the css file?<br>
<br>Thanks,<br><font color="#888888"><br>Troy<br>
