I've been looking at getting a book on CSS. I've heard that The CSS Anthology by Rachel Andrew is very good. Any input?
What I'm looking for is something to help me with postioning. I have the hardest time postioning things in CSS.
Yes, the WC3 schools are very informative. I use them when I need an answer quick.
BUT............................
I want a book.
By the way, think I'll start a thread on On-line tutorials vs. books.
To be brief, I just perfer a book when I really want to learn something. I can't bring my computer to work and surf the web at break...I could use the company computer, but then that could lead some troubles from the higher ups.
And, there's just something about a good author's writing and descriptions vs. a bunch of data on the screen.
Why pay money and kill trees when you can use the interenet?
What? Do you hate trees? Do you like spending money on something you could get for free? Hmmm?
