Overview
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
with notes, warnings, and sidebars to help you learn through
example rather
than theory. Some of the concepts covered include:
• Converting an HTML-based design to a pure positioning
layout
• Styling a photo gallery
• Using background images to achieve cross-browser
translucency effects
• 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
