Okay... I dangle the carrot just a bit more:

Generated Content - SEO Potential!

The page code:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.1//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml11/DTD/xhtml11.dtd">

<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en">
<head>
<title>Generated Content - You see it, but it's not really there!</title>
<link rel="stylesheet" title="Widgets" href="generated-content-one.css" type="text/css" media="all" />
<link rel="alternate stylesheet" title="Widget Flavors" href="generated-content-two.css" type="text/css" media="all" />
<link rel="alternate stylesheet" title="Widget Prices" href="generated-content-three.css" type="text/css" media="all" />
</head>

<body>
<h1 id="variable-header"></h1>
<div class="=variable-content-by-stylesheet">
<p id="content-in-stylesheet"></p>
<p id="alternate-stylesheets-rule"></p>
</div>
</body>
</html>

The CSS for stylesheet generated-content-one.css:

#variable-header {content: Amazing Widgets!}
#content-in-stylesheet {content: Information that I DO NOT want on present in my page code as it dilutes my SEO formula and ruins the beauty of my concise and oh so beautifully scripted keyword rich text!;}
#alternate-stylesheets-rule {content: More information I would rather keep off page, but would LOVE my customers to see. You can change me by using ALTERNATE STYLSHEETS. Can you see the potential?;}

And... as you might already guess, the content is changeable via ALTERNATE STYLESHEETS!

Now the above example has no relevant keyword text anywhere in the actual page code, but the real potential is in mixing GENERATED CONTENT with standard content.

Imagine for a moment.... uh, pageone? Are you sitting down? Good... now take a deeeeep breath! There. Okay...

Imagine for a moment (and dream about it from this point on...!) being able to "craft" pages that have highly optimized keyword content present in the page code and uses GENERATED CONTENT to display content that well, for any number of reasons, you choose to keep out of the actual page code. CSS Cloaking? Not really... it's just 'lil ole Generated Content comin' at ya...

Looks like "G" is gonna hafta start parsin' "C"(SS) at some future date...

Intrigued?
