title: HTML/CSS designs for mundane text-heavy content
body: <p>I am tasked with updating a family of web sites that promote scientific conferences that cater to a niche scientific field.  The sites are currently written with some modest CSS layout for the shared common page template structure, but the details of each page are a mishmash of &lt;p&gt;, &lt;br&gt;, and &amp;nbsp; to position the content.  This makes it tough to update the content, since the spacings are always changing, and the page ends up ugly at the slightest mod.</p>
  
  <p>So, I'd like to change this stuff into a more CSS-happy state.  There are lots of sites that offer tips for specific CSS design goals, but I'm a developer without a lot of web site artistry capabilities and don't have a structure already in mind.  Are there any good sites that teach CSS in the context of some relatively mundane -- but effectively presented -- business content?  Stuff like the CSS zen garden is way cool, but I'm looking more for something that will both give me some simple text-heavy business data positioning ideas <em>and</em> present those ideas as a CSS learning opportunity.</p>
  
  <p>Does any such site exist?</p>
