Lemon 5.0 out of 5 stars I'm a professional technical writer who uses a single-sourcing tool called MadCap Flare to write, format, and produce content for printed manuals and online help systems. Flare itself isn't so hard to use. But it relies completely on CSS to format its output. For many years now, I've been using style sheets (in Word and FrameMaker), but I've only had a rudimentary knowledge of CSS. My use of Flare mandated that I get up to speed with CSS, otherwise I'd never be able to control Flare's output to the degree that I needed to. To start out, I did a couple of web tutorials on CSS.
http://stanir.ru/userfiles/elementary-school-library-policy-procedures-manual.xml
Nor does it clearly illustrate the full potential of CSS (which is ironic, since Lie helped define CSS specification). But it did get me moving down the right path and improve my Flare output. Wanting more, I read a couple of other books. But they were geared more toward advanced techniques for users who already understand CSS's capabilities. I needed to step back a bit and find the right book directed at intermediate users. Based on the Amazon reader reviews, I decided to give McFarland's CSS: The Missing Manual a try. And I'm really glad I did. For beginners, McFarland assumes you know a little bit of HTML, but that's about all. He guides you through CSS and its awesome capabilities with an easy, conversational writing style and clear examples that explain the interaction between CSS and HTML. The book teaches you gradually, and in a very logical order. You are always building on stuff you already learned in earlier chapters. Best of all, he provides tutorials so you can apply your new knowledge right away with practical, real-world examples. He also explains how to minimize your CSS markup to get the most versatility out of the last amount of code. His chapters on floating elements, managing divisions, and multiple columns is worth the price of the book, alone. He also provides common fixes so your CSS works with quirky web browsers (IE6, etc.). He also has a chapter dedicated to managing print output, so your web pages print nicely, which is invaluable to us who manage single-source content for multiple output formats. Upon finishing this book, I was able to completely overhaul and streamline my CSS files, and get much better results from my print and online output. If you are a beginner with CSS, start here. I promise you, this book will get you up to speed quickly.
If you are an intermediate user, this book is a great refresher, and it covers all of the same techniques I found in books for advanced users, but with examples and tutorials that are much easier to follow. In short, this book's content is clear, thorough, and straightforward. Isn't that what you want when you are trying to learn something new. CSS is very, very cool. And this book is a superb learning guide that will help you realize its full potential. If you are a tech writer or a web designer, this book deserves a place on your shelf.I've read through dozens of technical how-to books, on topics ranging from CSS to Photoshop and Motion Graphics, but web technologies are often the most difficult to convey and explain succinctly and in context. Everything is very abstract in the world of web code; it's no small task to write a truly excellent reference book that keeps you engaged and informed as a reader, rather than bombarding you with white-paper speak or endless, overly complex examples. This book succeeds on all of the counts noted earlier. It's very easy to find exactly the types of CSS elements you need to learn about, and then quickly discover how they work. The time between reading and implementing is short. The examples are very clearly illustrated and the author's style and ability to explain things in the right order and with the right amount of detail, make this book a must-have CSS reference. Example: it took me all of 10 minutes to discover (again) how to build my own navbar elements with this book, including styling and page flow considerations. With previous books -even good ones- I'd often sit there scratching my head, turning pages back and forth for a half hour before similarly complicated topics made sense. I've probably read through a dozen popular CSS titles. This will be my go-to reference anytime I've forgotten a specific technique or guideline.
As someone who works in the digital arts, I often go several months between code updates for my site and so having a truly comprehensive but efficient reference is a must to shake out the cobwebs. This is that book. Enjoy.This is annoying and patronising if you know what you're doing. He repeats himself over and over throughout each section. I must have been told what floating a block level element does over 5 times in different chapters. Still perfectly readable though. Overall: A very good book for learning CSS theory and techniques. It lost a star for repeating itself too much and therefore being a bit of a drag to finish.Sorry, we failed to record your vote. Please try again The book itself is quite chunky at over 500 pages so takes a while to work through. The Good: Brilliant for a newbie to CSS as it takes you from absolutely entry level to being able to understand and code beautiful CSS powered websites. I also used it as a reference for whenever I needed to do something I wasn't quite sure of and I found myself going back to it on a regular basis. The Bad: If you are a seasoned CSS coder then you will still find it great for reference but it can drag a little. In the beginning as a newbie you need to know when to press enter and click on buttons etc but by page 400 it's still talking you through like you have turned a PC on for the first time. This can be slightly irritating to more accomplished users. Overall: Great book if you are new to CSS or even if you just want a reference.Sorry, we failed to record your vote. Please try again It completely explains the correct way to format web pages. You can skim through it and get a lot of useful information, or you can go through all the examples via the online source code and really experience the learning process. If you don't already know absolutely everything about styling web pages using CSS, you'll be really glad you read this book.Sorry, we failed to record your vote.
Please try again This book has given me so much more knowledge and is a fantastic reference point. I use it all the time now. The exercises are easy to follow and it is extremely well written to explain the details. This book would be great for beginners to experienced users. I wish I had bought it ages ago. It has some great tips and tricks and reference sources in it too. Just brilliant!Sorry, we failed to record your vote. Please try again This book is clearly written and packed with advice. There are also downloadable tutorials that you can use to practise your coding on. Not for the faint-hearted - this book is highly technical, but even a novice coder can use it to create great websites.Sorry, we failed to record your vote. Please try again.

I miss it already. I had learned alot - it was well set-up and easy to follow. But now I am taking a course at the college. The author explains the common CSS properties in detail, gives practical example as well as useful advices on common problems (div vs span, class vs id, better CSS file structure, better CSS class name.) Originally, I ordered the book in my company but it got borrowed by many people. So, I read CSS tutorial on W3C instead.

Originally, I ordered the book in my company but it got borrowed by many people. So, I read CSS tutorial on W3C instead. Most of the info in part I, II and some in part III are condensed pretty well in W3C CSS tutorial. If you want to save time, you can read such tutorial instead. Then, come back to the book for part III and IV for advanced CSS discussion. The front-end lanscape is growing fast, with many new cool tech to CSS recently (CSS grid, CSS structure like BEM, SMACSS.) Hopefully, the 5th edition will come out to include those tech. This book will NOT make you into a web designer by any means, but by working through all the tutorials (which can be downloaded here: ) you will start to get some idea of what works -- and how easy it is to make a webpage that looks really nice with just a few lines of code. The book covers all the basics and gives you a flavor of CSS3 in the final chapter. Making editing changes over multiple pages is downright maddening. Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) is the answer. CSS enables the webmaster to set standards such as selecting a particular font size and color for all headings, subheadings, or texts without having to rewrite the html each time. This system also allows editing changes that carry over from one page to another to be changed automatically with a single change. Making editing changes over multiple pages is downright maddening.

This system also allows editing changes that carry over from one page to another to be changed automatically with a single change. For those trying to manage websites with hundreds of pages, CSS is an obvious must have. CSS can be undertaken in two ways: manually or in association with various website design programs. Webmasters can manually insert CSS into their existing html code. Doing so is pretty simple, especially for those used to writing their own html. Alternately, Dreamweaver 8 comes automatically equipped with CSS and is simply a matter of choosing formatting options. Webmasters using either option will definitely find this book valuable. This text includes step by step instructions so that the reader can learn by doing. Actually working with the code is probably the best way to understand the capabilities and time saving abilities of CSS. Even those using the automatic CSS systems will benefit from this aspect while troubleshooting or just realizing the extents of what CSS can do. The book does assume that the reader has some basic experience with HTML. However, the CSS related material teaches the reader right from the very beginning.

Those with some CSS experience will probably pick and choose topics as needed.
However, I highly recommend reading the Improving Your CSS Habits and CSS on the Edge chapters as they contain a lot of important tidbits. I would always just rely on various tutorials but never have a full grasp of exactly what I was doing. One area that I was fuzzy on was the use of descendent selectors. So after reading many amazon reviews, I ordered this book. Much of the book was a refresher for me, but I even enjoyed those sections as they helped to solidify my knowledge of those area. Overall, it's very well written and gives lots of clear examples. Th I would always just rely on various tutorials but never have a full grasp of exactly what I was doing.

I would highly recommend this book to anyone who wants to learn CSS or grow in this CSS knowledge. I don't necessarily like reading books on CSS, HTML, Tech, etc., but I had to in this case because I am teaching myself. In terms of being able to teach myself from this book, I thought that it was well laid out and easy to get through.

Do I have a basic understanding of style sheets and how to use them. Yes, mostly (and that mostly is due to my own inadequacies and idiosyncrasies rather than the books). So the 4 stars isn't for liking it.it's for the books ability to impart knowledge in a relatively clear and concise manner. While I already knew much of the material, I still was able to learn new tricks that I hadn't known previously More importantly, after reading this book, you learn how much of a pain in the butt it is to develop for Internet Explorer.

CSS was supposed to be a challenge. It was supposed to hurt. I'd struggled with it for years before getting this book, and suddenly, it was over. It was like hauling in the tanks and torpedoes and souped-up BFGs and getting ready for the final assault on Godzilla, and Godzilla slumps over and dies of a heart attack. NOT FAIR. So if you like challenges, read any other CSS book. If you want to master C CSS was supposed to be a challenge. It was supposed to hurt.

So if you like challenges, read any other CSS book. If you want to master CSS quickly and painlessly, read this one. It has really helped me better understand the inner workings of CSS and especially how the cascading process works. The tutorials were really helpful and I liked that I could get hands on experience working through the different aspects of CSS. I recommend this book to anyone who is interested in getting a good foundation of CSS. Even if you have never worked with CSS before. Perfect for a this-time-of-life claiming my destiny sorta thing.(no I won't be retiring soon) Thanks Mr. McFarland for caring about real human beings! The book (along with other references about HTML5) was very helpful, in particular the tutorials.
However, it could have been written to be a little less verbose - this is probably the programmer in me talking. Otherwise, I'm happy with the book.The book (along with other references about HTML5) was very helpful, in particular the tutorials.

Otherwise, I'm happy with the book.This book helped me get a refresher on the right way to do HTML, in addition to the great info on CSS. I still have a lot to learn, and this is a great resource. Not really a reference book, but still something you can refer to. Provides fundamental, greatly explained concepts, good tutorials, tons of useful reference. So far the best and the most comprehensive book about css. This book shows you the different hacks needed for different browsers (ugh ugh IE). David gives some really interesting tips and sites which display the power of CSS. I believe I'll use this book as a CSS reference for months to come. Saved Lot of time in Debugging and writing the Right Css. Must Read for any CSS writer aspirant. I still refer it and Recommend to my juniors Inheritance was the key point for me. The third section was too much and I skipped most of it. Left me wondering what the place of CSS will be in the future in light of xhmtl and xsl. It's got excellent tutorials and is also a useful reference book. Good tips on browser quirks too. I had a beginner's knowledge of CSS coming into this one, and afterwards I really feel pretty comfortable using it for any of my work. Wish I'd had the time to take it from front to back, using the guided exercises to really master the material. As it was, I used it mainly as a reference, and it served my purposes well. Definitely keeping it on hand. It's a good book. I didn't read everything in detail, but I skimmed through the whole thing. The humor in this book wasn't funny to me, but it's easy to ignore it.
It is a bit outdated with lots workarounds for IE 6 and IE 7. This book filled in some gaps I had in my understanding of CSS descendants and hierarchy and how to apply floats for positioning rather than rely on tables for positioning. I am literally recommending it in a book on learning to code that I am writing.

But due to CSS's complexity most designers treat it as a kind of window-dressing to spruce up the appearance of their sites without tapping into the real power of CSS.
