This guide, "Styling Web Pages with CSS: Visual QuickProject Guide" by Dori Smith, published by Peachpit Press, serves as an introduction to Cascading Style Sheets for web designers. It focuses on practical application, covering essential CSS concepts such as rules, selectors, classes, IDs, and the cascade, along with styling elements, working with images, and creating menus and navigation. The book is designed for web designers who need to quickly grasp and implement CSS for styling web pages, offering a project-based approach with an emphasis on browser compatibility and debugging.
This manual is structured to provide clear, concise instruction on CSS for its intended audience. It details how to manage style sheets, work with Divs and boxes, and apply properties like floats, padding, and margins. The guide also addresses advanced topics such as moving styles from internal to external sources. The objective is to equip readers with the skills to effectively style web pages, making it a valuable resource for those seeking to enhance their web design capabilities.
Sometimes it's hard to get started with a new technology. That's where this book excels. It's not going to show Web designers everything there is to know about CSS but rather will provide a solid introduction from which to build their CSS knowledge. The beginning of the book starts with the basics -- rules, selectors, classes, IDs, the cascade, internal and external style sheets, Divs, boxes, floats, padding, margins -- everything is covered. Next comes styling elements, working with images, menus and navigation, and moving styles from internal to external style sheets. Rounding out this project-based guide is working with browsers, both old and new, and debugging CSS. Succinct and to the point, it's the perfect book for designers without a lot of time who need to understand and start using CSS.
