I'm making an app in Adobe Air and I want to make a robust looking UI. And it's quite hard to do in CSS, I just end up with lots of messy code that probably doesn't work that well anyway.

So does anyone know of a good UI CSS framework that focuses on a robust layout rather than pointless slidy crap and datepickers.

JavaScript frameworks with good UI widgets:

960.gs is a decent CSS framework for layout. Though personally I normally roll my own, taking snippets from my previous work and build it up. Using standards mode means virtually no variation between browsers.

Some good suggestions were given when I asked the same question here on SO. Check them out.

Yeah that's the kind of thing I'm looking for. I'll leave it open for a while though.

I would suggest Blueprint css framework with BOKS

First you need to understand how Blueprint works

which u can found here http://net.tutsplus.com/tutorials/html-css-techniques/a-closer-look-at-the-blueprint-css-framework/

then use BOKS

http://toki-woki.net/p/Boks/help.html

Boks is an AIR application (so it works on Windows, Mac and Linux) that provides a User Interface for Blueprint CSS's framework. It's been designed for those who think the Grid System is good but never really took the time to give it love.

It handles grid configuration, baseline rhythm pimpin', CSS (with or without compression) and grid.png export, HTML layout and much more goodie-goodie!
