new to sgml



Hello List !

I have a general SGML question. I want to write html/css or xml like
documents but have the problem that currently no Linux browser seems
to be able to print then correctly, so I want to learn SGML since 
I heard that there are tools to produce .ps or .dvi directly from then.

Now I have the big problem, that I cannot find any formatting information
in the sgml files. In every dtd I've found there is only a BNR-like
notation of which elements are allowed in which place but nowhere such
things like font-size, color or absoule screen position are mentioned.

Can anybody suggest me a good online reading or can tellme if it is 
possibly at all to use SGML to make a "document class" for writing
businness letters just like in TeX ? 
(I could do it in html/css, so theroetically it has to be possible in 
SGML, or not ?)

read you,

 -christian-
