Mar 2009 | English | ISBN-13: 978-0-321-55557-1 | 145 Pages | PDF | 6.17 MB

Sometimes it’s hard to get started with a new technology. That’s where this book excels. It’s not going to show Web designers everything there is to know about CSS but rather will provide a solid introduction from which to build their CSS knowledge. The beginning of the book starts with the basics — rules, selectors, classes, IDs, the cascade, internal and external style sheets, Divs, boxes, floats, padding, margins — everything is covered. Next comes styling elements, working with images, menus and navigation, and moving styles from internal to external style sheets. Rounding out this project-based guide is working with browsers, both old and new, and debugging CSS. Succinct and to the point, it’s the perfect book for designers without a lot of time who need to understand and start using CSS.
