Stories from around the ranch

Katrina reviewed Pro CSS and HTML Design Patterns by Michael Bowers and gave it 9 out of 10 horseshoes.

I absolutely love this book. I have two copies of it - one at work, one at home. ... It provides a solid fundamental understanding of how elements and rules interact, and especially how the same element or attribute will behave differently in different environments. ... In several cases, it has saved me hours of trying to achieve something which simply cannot be done in the current specification. At the same time, it has provided enough information to find a different approach that does work. ... The book is very systematic, and while it is a great read cover-to-cover, it functions very well as a reference volume. The 'patterns' format (name/problem/solution/pattern) makes it very easy to locate the exact information you are looking for. ... Summary: Buy this book. Read this book. I mean it.
