Product Description
Ready to commit to using more CSS on your sites?  If you are a hands-on
learner who has been toying with CSS and want to experiment with real-world
projects that will enable you to see how CSS can help resolve design issues,
this book is written just for you! CSS master Eric A. Meyer has picked up
where Eric Meyer on CSS: Mastering the Language of Web Design left off.  He
has compiled 10 new, highly useful projects designed to encourage you to
incorporate CSS into your sites and take advantage of the design
flexibility, increased accessibility, decreased page weight, and cool visual
effects CSS offers.

Each project is laid out in an easy-to-follow, full color format complete

• Styling a photo gallery

• Using lists of links to create tabs and drop down menus without the use of
  JavaScript
• Styling weblog entries, and placing them in a full-page design
• Creating a design for the CSS Zen Garden

5.0 out of 5 stars Brilliant, 15 Jun 2004
By M. Wilcox "elvendil" (UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
If you're a web designer you ought to know about standards. If you know about standards you need to know XHTML and CSS.

This book will teach you all about CSS in a practical series of demonstrations. You don't need to have read Eric's first book (Eric Meyer on CSS) to read this one, but if you have you might get into this one a little easier than if you havent.

Eric's style is informal but thorough, you get the impression that you're sitting at his side watching the master at work, solving problems. In this book you'll learn the basics right through to some very advanced 'tricks' such as pure CSS drop down menus (ones that work in ALL modern browsers, and yes, that includes the browser that is the thorn in Standards Compliance's side : Internet Explorer).

The book itself is entertaining and informative to read in its own right, but if you're going to follow along and do the projects yourself you'll learn even more. The style is easy and friendly with a clear explination for what's being done and pointers to potential problems or a new direction that could be taken.

If you need to figure out more about the benifit of CSS and what it can do take a look at http://www.csszengarden.com where you'll find one of the walk-thru projects covered in the book : a complete skin for the CSS Zen Garden project.

Worth getting no matter what your level of expertise (or not) in CSS. You'll learn a lot. Painlessly.

5.0 out of 5 stars CSS from the master, 23 Feb 2005
By Mr. Shane Porter "shaneporter66" (Manchester) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
It's no secret that Meyer is one of the world's leading authorities on CSS, if not the most accomplished expert.

In addition to his knowledge, he writes very well, and the book is formatted so that it's easy to see where he is taking each design, step by step.

This is NOT a book for beginners. Although he does explain what he's doing with clarity, it does assume some knowledge of CSS. That's not a criticism, just something to be aware of; if you're new to CSS, try another book.

One of the highlights for me is Eric's design for CSSZenGarden.

5.0 out of 5 stars Another tour de force by Eric Meyer., 6 Jul 2004
By P. J. A. Jennings "pja_jennings" (Oxfordshire) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
In many ways similar to his previous volume, each chapter of this book is based on a project. Meyer demonstrates some truly remarkable results that can be obtained by using modern CSS2 compliant browsers He shows how to overcome the shortcomings and bugs in Internet Explorer that still does not "do" CSS2 correctly even in its 6th reincarnation.
Highlights for me include unordered lists that become cascading navigation menus and Eric's version of the Zen Garden site.
