I'd recommend reading some of the recent books on this sort of topic.
In particular, these two:

The Zen of CSS design / Dave Shea, Molly Holzschlag (2005)
http://worldcat.org/oclc/58393096
Transcending CSS / Andy Clarke, Molly Holzschlag (2007)
http://worldcat.org/oclc/76910430

I think they deal with topics like these and sort of getting your head
around the whole concept of CSS and HTML/XHTML and how they work
together.  And the second one has an eye on CSS3, which I think is
important.
