If we go through the history of web design and development:

· The first page uploaded on a web server was just a simple document with black text.

· In late 1990s, websites were designed using colors and text effects.

· Then came the trend of making interactive sites means making visitors to give their inputs to site directly

· Use of HTML, DHTML and Flash was started to create website designs.

· Then came CSS as the table based design was good but it had some limitations; lots of codes to write and implement style on each and every object on the web pages. Solution was introduced in shape of CSS (Cascading Style Sheet). CSS is the latest trend in web design. There are no tables to draw. You can use the div tag to assign styles to any object or component on the web pages.

Still new trends are coming up to make websites more efficient and user friendly.
