I'd recommend starting by learning the CSS equivalents of the familiar HTML tags, like font-weight: bold for <b>. |

Then learn other things to do with CSS, I guess. Also, the different ways to incorporate CSS into an HTML document (i.e., as a style element of any tag for one-time use, or internally in the <head> section of the HTML document or externally in a separate .css file) and when to use each one:
Style attribute (<tag style="whatever">): when it's a one-time thing, like you want only one sentence to be red or something Internally in the head section: when you want that CSS to be applied to only one HTML page, but everywhere on the page. Say you want all <b> tags to also make the text slightly larger, you could specify a style for the b tag. In an external .css file: Same as above but if you want to use the same CSS on many pages such as an entire website. |

CSS is pretty easy up until the point you start getting into advanced stuff like pseudo elements and table-less layouts. CSS gets even more trickier when your working towards cross compatibility between browsers and strict W3C validation. Internet Explorer has a bad reputation for badly parsing CSS. Then again Firefox has some weird ass issues i've encountered as well. In a sense there is no perfect implementation of CSS just because It's so complex, and might never be perfected. |

It's easy. Learn classes and how to attach styles to individual elements, and you're done.
And also realize no one browser processes it the same, so that you might as well go with whatever looks good to you rather than what a bunch of stuffy corporate wackos say is right. |

Posted by XeonOpera too, I heard. IE7 is the only browser I've seen rendering my webpage right... Just got a marvellous idea. PHP-generated CSS that adjusts to the browser. ____________________ Wife make lunch - Shampoo Opera - give it a spin Spare some of your free time? <GreyMaria> I walked around the Lake so many goddamn times that my sex drive was brutally murdered Kawa rocks  — byuu |

Any time I need to know something about CSS, I Google "css [whatever I need to know in 2-3 words]". E.g.: "css font size", "css border", "css maximum height", etc. No quotes, though. |
