Book Review of "Styling with CSS "

 

Stylin' with CSS: A Designer's Guide

Good coverage of CSS layouts (2 and 3 columns layouts) and CSS menus (horizontal, multiple-levels, and drop downs).

What I like about this book is that nice annotations right next to the code lines so that I can easily see what each code line does without having to read the paragraph text.

Ch 5: "Basic Page Layout"

p.126: Simple Two-Column Layout"

p.130: Fluid Three-Column Layout

p.139: Three-Column Layout with Float and Clear

Faux Column Techniques for fixed width (p154) and fluid width (p160) layouts.

p.167: CSS layouts have the benefit of being able to switch center content to be higher on the page order. This technique involves the use of negative margins.

p. 186: Horizontal nav menus

p.195: Drop Down Menus

p. 203: Multiple Level drop down menus

p.30: Inline styles

p. 32: Embedded Styles

p.33: Linked Styles
