W3C Schools (online free)

fyi, W3C sets the standards for HTML, XHTML, CSS, XML, etc... best place to learn CSS.

Poke around the links on the left nav bar.

This is prolly one of the best books I read on CSS.

Site point also has a fairly decent forum....

Google Groups CSS

You might be able to find that book at your local library, I did.

You're welcome. Glad I could help.

We can talk CSS at the SG Midwest meeting too...

You can learn a lot of CSS hack stuff (for browser compatability issues) and a ton of stuff on CSS in general, if you keep an eye on that google group, and you can post questions there too.

That book was great.

Can't beat W3C Schools, they are the authority.

btw, what app are you using to create your web sites?

dont know atm. my friend is doing all the graphic work and what not im just doing the css part...we want to make a site to the extent of providing people layouts, banners, and site...ect. i dont know nothing he knows it all but agreed to make a site if i learn css to do the coding part of it.

W3schools is definately a good source to learn, like ghetto said, however, w3schools isn't affiliated with W3C, who set the standards.

OMG... I see that now.



I've been calling it W3C Schools for a few years and no-one has ever pointed that out to me.
I don't remember how I landed on that site... maybe I followed a link that called it W3C and I never noticed ... but regardless, I'm seriously overdue for new glasses or testing for dyslexia.
Just for the heck of it I googled W3C School - W3 School comes up as result 1.

Anyway, I stand corrected. Thanks for pointing that out.

w3schools is a good site for learning CSS & DHTML (dhtml basically = css & javascript combined) in Internet Explorer, but fails to provide info re CSS in other browsers except for their charts.

Agreed.

A bit of book reading will be required, and cross test pages in multiple browsers. That's where I've learned the quickest- finding bugs while previewing.

I've been studying HTML, XHTML, and CSS on the W3Schools site, and have found it very good
