Review

"CSS brings HTML authoring to the next level by effectively combining the structure and content of Web pages with powerful presentation capabilities."
Tim Berners-Lee Director of the World Wide Web Consortium

Product Description

Cascading Style Sheets http://www.w3.org/pub/WWW/Style/CSS , developed by HSkon Wium Lie and Bert Bos of the World Wide Web Consortium, offers a powerful and manageable way for authors, artists and typographers to create the much-requested visual effects that will put aesthetics to the forefront of the Web. CSS enjoys wide industry backing, and is supported in Microsoft Internet Explorer and Netscape Navigator with other implementations soon to follow.

Written by the world authorities, this book will be the Web designers' definitive guide to Cascading Style Sheets.

Features:

  • a brief HTML tutorial to bring newcomers to Web design up to speed
  • when to use CSS and when to use other methods
  • how to create and maintain a Web site with a consistent style that will display well on all screens
  • how traditional print-based typography is expressed in CS
  • a complete description together with examples of all CSS functionality
  • a rich set of figures and rendering examples, including sixty four pages of full color
  • challenges when moving from static paper to a dynamic screen, and how CSS supports authors in this transition

5.0 out of 5 stars Useful and Elegant, 1 July 1997
By A Customer
This review is from: Cascading Style Sheets: Designing for the Web (Paperback)
I often come across books on web design that I think are not particularly well designed. So I was pleasantly surprised that, although the title "Cascading Style Sheets" sounded relatively boring next to titles such as "Sizzling Killer Web Sites that Make You Millions!", this book delivers and more. In fact, I think it's one of the most elegant technical books I have ever read. The writing is authoritative, clear and practical. And because the book's design and typography is so well-crafted and attractive, it's inspirational just flipping through its pages! Good going, Guys! -Ben

5.0 out of 5 stars The only CSS book needed!, 27 Jun 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: Cascading Style Sheets: Designing for the Web (Paperback)
Simply put, if you are interested in gaining more control over your web page and are up to learn CSS buy this book now. You just can't get any better. I'm writing the scripts up like they do with my own text and applying styles to it like they show and this really gets you in to it. The first day I had it, I wrote out a small simply script and came back the next day and had deleted the file, and wrote it all again from memory. This book is effective and amazing. All I can say is buy it now!
