I use XP with FP2003 and publish a large website with many nested include
pages from a local computer to my remote ISP. I have CSS switched on and
found that this didn't prpogate the changed font size in a theme to any text
in tables and had to adjust such tables manually. Now I find that list
properties behave differently between my local and my published site and I
suspect this may be due to CSS. If I choose directory list, my local site
shows small balck circles as the bullets by my remote published site still
shows the bullet graphic from the theme.

What are the pros and cons of using CSS withing FP2003 and what would I lose
by switching them off?

Get rid of the themes and just use CSS for your formatting ... your pages
will load quicker and look better under the hood.

Use DWT's instead of themes, and includes just for menus, css for
formatting.
You won't be sorry.

No, Flash is an application and not presentation. You need scripting for
flash to work. The Flash loads fine for me using Firefox. Wish I had been
warned about the music though.
