Being easy to design, the CSS layout is used by web designers to design a web page. A CSS layout generally consists of the header, footer, left pane, right pane, and body part. The layout of a web page can be designed in either of the 3 ways:
- HTML Div with CSS: This way of designing the layout of a website is fast and is popularly used nowadays.
- HTML Table: This way of designing the layout of a website is slow and is less preferred nowadays.
- HTML Frameset: This way of designing the layout of a website is deprecated now.
