Awesome book!! I needed to learn CSS for my job. This has been an excellent book! One thing I had problems with was with the downloaded tutorial files. It may be just related to my PC? Long story short... When I tried to open up the .HTML files in Notepad, from all of the chapter files after unzipping them, Notepad did not render the code in a very readable way. I had to open each one in Wordpad, then edit/select all > copy. Then open the same file up in Notepad and paste the code from Wordpad and re-saved it with same file name. Now all files are readable when opening up in notepad. Not sure why my PC garbeled the code?


Anyway... just a tip if anyone else had that problem. Awesome book to learn CSS!!! I have read, or tried to read many before, and they mostly read like a reference book. This one you actually do hands on projects.

"One of the beauties of the Missing Manuals is that there is always something new to discover and the research is quite thorough...I kept finding snippets of information, in the way of Tips or Notes, that would give just that bit extra."
