You still have to type out the font, the size, the color, etc. CSS should function more like quark. You do the work in a real-time work environment, seeing sizes, shapes, colors everything then you select the work and you can then add that to your style sheet--defining the style. With something like that you don't you can see it and it works what it needs to do in the background without the designer sitting there wading through code.

I think it treats styles the same way print design programs do, with a list of styles in a small window that you can click and apply to the elements in your document, much the same way a word processor does the same thing. Or do you mean something else? Do you have Dreamweaver?
