Simply put, Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) is a way to separate a document's structure from its presentation. The benefits of this can be quite profound: CSS allows a much richer document appearance than HTML; CSS saves time--you can create or change the appearance of an entire document in just one place; and its compact file size makes web pages load quickly. Eric Meyer, a member of the CSS&FP Working Group and an internationally known expert on HTML and CSS, tackles the subject with passion and delivers a comprehensive and thorough update to his groundbreaking book.

All readers will benefit from both the depth and breadth of his experience and his clear and honest style. Cascading Style Sheets: The Definitive Guide, 2nd Edition is a thorough review of all aspects of CSS2.1 and a comprehensive guide to CSS implementation. The book includes new content on positioning, lists and generated content, table layout, user interface, paged media, and more. It explores in detail each individual CSS property and how it interacts with other properties, and shows how to avoid common mistakes in interpretation.

If you're ready to take the next step with your HTML coding and incorporate CSS or are already a CSS code warrior, you'll find Cascading Style Sheets: The Definitive Guide, 2nd Edition is the book you've been craving.

More of a Tutorial than a Definitive Guide

If you are not using Cascading Style Sheets in your own HTML documents, you should consider them. They will save you hours of tedious formatting time. CSS allows you to control every aspect of the formatting and display of your website, without having to "touch" each page individually.

This book is great for someone who has never worked with CSS before. It is very easy to read, and leads you through some very good examples that show how to use CSS for what it does best.

As some reviewers have pointed out, this is not a reference book. It is not well suited to some who is already well versed in CSS, as it will take you awhile to find the exact item of information you are looking for. However, for learning CSS, in the first place, this book does a good job.

1. CSS and Documents

2. Selectors

3. Structure and the Cascade

4. Values and Units

5. Fonts

6. Text Properties

7. Basic Visual Formatting

8. Padding, Borders and Margins

Improve Your Knowledge of CSS

Reviewed in the United States on September 29, 2004

Prior to owning this book, I was involved in web design of different types for about five years. I picked up various aspects of CSS from visual editors like GoLive and Dreamweaver, just by visually creating elements and tweaking the code. However, if you really want to understand the way CSS is structured and what the best methods for achieving certain types of looks are, this is a good place to start.

This book is neither pure code reference (you should get that at w3c.org), nor a tips and tricks book (though it does have some good code samples for how to achieve certain things in CSS). Rather it will teach you how to create your own "tricks", by explaining how to: structure CSS code, understand the differences in syntax, and understanding the differences between seemingly similar properties and property values (padding and margins for example).

One qualm I have is that the first book I received had a really poor glue-binding (pages were falling out, and the backing was detached from the binding). The replacement book (Amazon was very quick about it) also had a detached backing, but the binding itself was OK so I kept it. Also, I will say the book is a little dry / difficult to read more than a chapter at a time, but it's just as well because it's hard to retain things from technical books when you read straight through them (usually).

While this won't be the only CSS book you'll ever need by any stretch of the imagination, it's definitely a nice one to have around. I find that after my initial reading, the way I most often use this book is as a sort of "CSS Dictionary".

Once you're ready to start learning how to implement CSS in earnest, I recommend "Cascading Style Sheets: Separating Content from Presentation" by Owen Briggs. Similar in size and depth, this book is more accessible and more of a hands-on tool, while maintaining the important code references.

Great technical reference

Reviewed in the United States on August 13, 2006

CSS is the science and engineering behind the art of display. Meyer's book is a great resource for understanding that science. It is one of the few books allotted a place on my desk.

Written much like a programming book, it explains in logical steps exactly how the rules of CSS work. It is not a picture book: it does little to help someone design a website as that is not the intent. What the book does superbly is give the reader a detailed understanding of how to correctly construct a well designed (or not so well designed) website.

Because it examines the theory and logic underlying CSS, many portions of the book require thought and concentration to read. Some paragraphs seem quite difficult to follow at first glance, but the reason for this is that the ideas being conveyed are subtle and oftentimes complex. I found the book to be slow reading, much along the lines of a physics text, because a great deal of information is being conveyed in a small space.

My CSS code is much cleaner, and my coding and debugging time greatly reduced, as a result of *studying* this book.

An adequate tutorial and reference

Reviewed in the United States on May 24, 2013

Verified Purchase

For the lack of anything better in my library, I used to refer to this book a lot. But I found it only adequate. The tutorial is not that well organized, and the book is rather incomplete as a reference. Very important, it gives little help in separating the "wheat from the chaff" to help understand this complex but important topic. I ended up extracting various information from the book and other sources to make my own "cheat sheet", which I now use almost exclusively. The book is still on my shelf, but I have not used for more than a year, although I use css a lot.
