5.0 out of 5 stars A fine reference, 21 Jun 2001

By A Customer

This little reference is excactly what a CSS reference should be, including bug- and compatibility information for Netscape 4/6, IE 4/5/5.5 and Opera 3/4/5. The only small drawback I can think of is that I occasionally find it a little difficult to find the information I need. It is there, but sometimes you have to jump a little around between different sections in the book, before you have all the information you're looking for. To make it absolutely perfect you could add information about other alternative browsers, mostly I'm thinking about Konqueror. But these are minor subjects.

This is no tutorial, but it is a fine reference. I don't think I will be fair if I don't give it at least 4 stars, and I'm not really sure theres a good reason not giving it 5, so...

4.0 out of 5 stars Excellent reference, 17 Jul 2003

By	Graham Phillips (Cambridge, UK) - See all my reviews (TOP 500 REVIEWER) (REAL NAME)

This book is now permanently on my (physical) desktop. I can't possibly remember all the details of CSS - I just look things up all the time. Almost everything you need to know is here.

Note: it is a reference book not a teaching book. If you're new to CSS then you will need both. I recommend "Eric Meyer on CSS: Mastering the Language of Web Design with Cascading Style Sheets" for learning.

My only criticism is that the typography and layout are poor. In particular, in the main section, which accounts for about half the total number of pages, the page header simply says "reference", which is unhelpful. Since any one topic can cover many pages, you often need to flip though several pages in order to find where (alphabetically) you are. This is only a minor inconvenience, but irritating because it is quite unnecessary.

By the way, the cover blurb refers to "this useful programming language". Some people might be put off by this, thinking that CSS is only for computer programmers. Obviously, CSS in not a programming language.

5.0 out of 5 stars A must for your bookshelf, 27 April 2001

By	TravelUSA - See all my reviews

This book is definitely worth every penny spent! Covers all CSS1 along with CSS2, and as stated on cover a reference book - which it is, and a perfect one at that! If you're looking for a book on CSS - this is the one. An excellent book - need i say more.
