Video description
In Transcending CSS: The Fine Art Of Web Design (New Riders),
renowned designer and author Andy Clarke set the stage for the
development of progressive Web site design using XHTML, CSS and
other Web-standards technologies. In this new video, he takes a
step back and teaches some fundamental concepts about designing
using CSS and working with a range of browser tools to open up the
creative opportunities.
Viewers will learn how to design for the web by using the browser
and how to lay the foundations for their designs using meaningful
and accessible markup. You'll learn about the fundamentals of CSS
typography and color, and how to lay out pages using CSS floats,
positioning, and columns. The design workflow becomes faster and
more efficient, and more accurately representative of how designs
will be viewed in the final result.
Andy demonstrates these concepts using examples from a fictitious
social networking site he created.
