I'd say, even *while* doing the initial development, CSS helps
greatly. Recently I was working on a site relaunch which involved
going from the old, table and javascript based layout to a pure
CSS/XHTML layout and to a new content management system
(www.chronikdermauer.de) under a strict deadline.
The CMS/PHP developers needed to get the final HTML templates very
early, although the final design wasn't even finished on Photoshop
level, let alone in CSS. However we were able to just decide on the
structure of the HTML part early on, because we knew, that all design
changes would be possible to do in pure CSS, as sites like CSS
Zengarden proved. So we just handed out a clean and simple HTML
version with enough <div>s for our needs, they started coding, and we
finished the design, images, CSS and so on in parallel. This would
have been impossible with an oldfashioned table based layout.
Ciao
