More Eric Meyer on CSS picks up where the original book ended, going into detail on a score of important Web-design tasks. As he did with his first book, Meyer has had this one laid out in a broad-page format, with many illustrations, and printed in full color. The net effect is that readers see the design effects of the CSS tweaks under discussion, and there's no need to imagine (or load code) to see how colors and shadings look when rendered in a browser. Appealingly, this book is oriented around typical design projects (such as annual financial reports, weblogs, and personal homepages) and widely used design features (including menus and index tabs). This structure ensures the utility of Meyer's book--you can just turn to the chapter that deals with whatever you're trying to build, and see what the author did in a similar situation. Each section involves far more prose than code; Meyer is very careful to spend more time explaining what he's doing than he spends actually doing it, and the reader is never overwhelmed by giant CSS listings. Numerous screen shots intersperse the code and commentary, allowing you to see the intermediate results of style sheets in progress and adapt Meyer's beginnings in order to achieve different ends.--David Wall 27106 8 4 2004 More Eric Meyer on CSS (Voices That Matter) (VOICES) total:29|5:3|4:16|3:10| 29 109 60 0 0 0 false false Mon Oct 26 20:49:59 -0700 2009 Mon Oct 26 22:21:53 -0700 2009 3 0 false false Sat Jul 25 11:29:17 -0700 2009 Sat Jul 25 11:29:17 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Mon May 18 23:52:46 -0700 2009 Mon May 18 23:52:46 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Tue Apr 28 07:27:17 -0700 2009 Tue Apr 28 07:27:17 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Wed Apr 22 10:28:26 -0700 2009 Wed Apr 22 10:28:26 -0700 2009 3 0 false false Sun Mar 29 15:48:20 -0700 2009 Sun Mar 29 15:48:20 -0700 2009 4 0 false false Tue Mar 17 23:51:41 -0700 2009 Tue Mar 17 23:51:43 -0700 2009 3 0 false false Wed Mar 11 12:01:24 -0700 2009 Wed Mar 11 12:01:24 -0700 2009 4 0 false false Sun Feb 08 09:10:05 -0800 2009 Sun Feb 08 09:10:05 -0800 2009 5 0 false false Thu Feb 05 12:46:05 -0800 2009 Thu Feb 05 12:46:05 -0800 2009 3 0 false false Mon Feb 02 20:16:58 -0800 2009 Mon Feb 02 20:16:58 -0800 2009 0 0 false false Sun Feb 01 10:26:01 -0800 2009 Sun Feb 01 10:26:07 -0800 2009 0 0 false false Sat Jan 31 15:27:15 -0800 2009 Sat Jan 31 15:27:15 -0800 2009 0 0 false false Wed Jan 28 15:38:47 -0800 2009 Wed Jan 28 15:38:47 -0800 2009 3 0 false false Sat Jan 17 13:43:09 -0800 2009 Sat Jan 17 13:43:09 -0800 2009 4 0 false false Wed Jan 21 10:59:00 -0800 2009 Fri Jan 02 21:42:37 -0800 2009 Wed Jan 21 10:59:00 -0800 2009 0 0 false false Sat Nov 15 03:32:02 -0800 2008 Sat Nov 15 03:32:13 -0800 2008 3 0 false false Sat Nov 08 08:41:02 -0800 2008 Sat Nov 08 08:41:02 -0800 2008 0 0 false false Wed Nov 05 13:02:56 -0800 2008 Wed Nov 05 13:10:37 -0800 2008 4 0 false false Wed Nov 05 01:47:13 -0800 2008 Wed Nov 05 01:47:13 -0800 2008 http://www.goodreads.com/book_link/follow/8?book_id=26418
