Amazon.co.uk

For readers looking for a one-stop read for all they need to know about cascading style sheets (CSS), Cascading Style Sheets, Second Edition: Designing for the Web really hits the nail on the head. One of the authors--Hakon Wium Lie--was the originator of CSS and is in charge of the technology in the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C). His writing partner for this work is Bert Bos--another key member of the W3C currently focusing on style sheets and the Extensible Markup Language (XML). Together, they deliver a truly educational guide to the subject.

This book wisely includes numerous colour screen shots and diagrams, as well as many typographic examples, to augment the discussion of the inherently visual topic of CSS. The authors' graphical expertise comes through clearly with visuals that clarify topics without cluttering the presentation.

The coverage goes beyond--or shall we say behind--that found in many other CSS books that focus primarily on the technical features of browsers. For example, the authors take the time to discuss typesetting terminology and font families in order to build a well- rounded knowledge. Despite the presentation of the precise details of the CSS1 and CSS2 specifications, the writing is quite easy to read and intriguing to follow. Even if you are familiar with CSS--this is an excellent title to own. --Stephen W. Plain

Topics covered: CSS (level 1 and 2), HTML, and XML tutorials, and coverage of which browsers support which CSS elements.

Use this book to CODE, not to DESIGN. 31. Juli 2000

Von Cheryl M. Hammond

Format:Taschenbuch

This book is an indispensible resource if you've already decided HOW to implement CSS on your site and are looking for the best explanations of CSS selectors and syntax. The sections on typography and block-level elements, in particular, are detailed and extremely helpful (all that typography was much more than I needed to know, but it's good that it's there).

However, do NOT use this book if you haven't decided yet which CSS methods to use and cross-browser compatibility matters to you (or your clients). Each chapter cheerfully explains CSS features the way the creators WISH they would work, without indicating serious bugs or pitfalls you may encounter in the real world when trying to implement them the way they tell you to. The browser support charts are buried in the back -- they barely scratch the surface, especially where Netscape 4.x is concerned.

Making design decisions based on the information in this book could lead to some very unexpected and ugly results. Instead, use O'Reilly's "Cascading Style Sheets: A Definitive Guide", which documents browser compliance much more thoroughly, and turn back to this book as a quick-reference while you code.

Beginners: begin here! 6. Januar 2000

Von Ein Kunde

This book is amazingly well-written. As a beginning web designer with basic knowledge of HTML, Cascading Style Sheets, as it's name does not tell you, not only gives a fantastic insght into CSS but also gives the reader a stronghold on HTML.. Also, for all web designers with interest in starting XML and XSL, this book is invaluable as a lead-in as to the why's of XML and XSL's existance. Well written and informative. Buy it.

Good content, great style! 27. August 1999

The second edition of Lie&Bos is a welcome update for designers using CSS. As more and more browsers support CSS, having a reference book written by the co-authors of the specification is very helpful. The book goes into more depth than most designers will need, but its reassuring to know that answers to all questions can be found when needed.

The updated of the book also lists which CSS features are supported by which browsers. The Opera browser comes out on top, with Microsoft and Netscape trailing behind.

If you're stuck in the GIF tarpit, this book will help you out!

A fine book that uses a key feature missing nowadays

Although I didn't like this book quite as much as the O'Reilly offering (I rarely do), I'm pleased that there's a quickref on the inside covers. Lesen Sie weiter...

CSS From The Source

This is an excellent, straight-from-the-source book on Cascading Style Sheets, both from a how-to implementation stand-point, and as a way of understanding the intent of this... Lesen Sie weiter...

All Web Designers Should Read This Book

This book is excellent. It reads well, and provides both practical and philosophic information on the creation of web pages using CSS and on separating content from layout. Lesen Sie weiter...

don't waste your time - most features can't be implemented

This would be a great book if it discussed more than the W3C specifications, most of which are not implemented properly by today's browsers. Lesen Sie weiter...

Until IE8 comes out, this book is useless for designers

As Jakob Nielsen said, CSS2 won't be fully implemented in browsers until IE8 arrives. CSS2 holds a lot of promise, but for working day web site designers, it's pretty useless. Lesen Sie weiter...

The definite authority on CSS

I wish I had known about this book before buying the other ones. Very well written, excellent style, it can be used as an introduction as well as a reference.

Am 22. September 1999 ver�ffentlicht

If you will have only one book on CSS get this one

comprehensive, well written, well structured and with the 2nd edition also up to date. A side effect: great overview on typographic terminology as well.

Am 24. August 1999 ver�ffentlicht

Style atrocious, content incoherent.

This book's own style is atrocious -- which is ironic, considering its subject. The outside back cover's clumsy rendition of the standard promotional cliche for tech manuals sets... Lesen Sie weiter...
