I was sort of fed up with this new design they use on Goodreads. Especially for the font they use on the review pages. A Sans-Serif font for a running text?! Give me break. The easiest solution I found (so far) is to use a plugin for my browser with which I am able to adjust the styles of any webpage to make it look like I want. This plugin is called simply Stylish.What I basically wanted was to- use a Serif-Font (Georgia in this case) almost anywhere on Goodreads- make the text of a review a li...
Having finished this book, I'm simply itching to do some refactoring.
I liked it! I could relate to much of the writing angst and decisions about stepping away from the novel writing. Not sure I’d recommend it for non-writers though.
رغم أن نسخة الكتاب قديمة (2007) إلا أني تعلمت الكثير من المعلومات و استطعت تأكيد الكثير مما تعلمته بالتجربة مع السي إس إس. أعجبني منهج الكتاب المتبع: قسم الكتاب على فصول، في كل فصل يتناول جانب من جوانب السي إس إس، و بدلا من تقدم المعلومات بأسلوب شرح ممل و نظري، لجأ إلى طرح "مسائل" و "مشاكل" قد يواجهها المصمم و التي تتعلق بالفصل، ثم يقدم الجواب للمسألة مع شرح الأساسات المتعلقة بها. فـ تعلمت الأساس النظري في محيط عملي. كان ممتعا جدا. هناك الكثير الذي أود تدوينه، لكن وقتي لا يسعفني. و أريد الانتقال...
I picked this up to see if I could supplement my self-taught CSS knowledge with some book-learnin', and this was the best book my library had.The book format is very utilitarian; it arranges its information into "recipes." Each recipe contains a task that needs to be completed, followed by an explanation of how to do it with style sheets (and sometimes Javascript). I can imagine it would be a really good reference book to have around for this reason.The actual explanations were okay, if a bit un...
This book succeeds in some places and gets fairly bogged down in others. I cannot hold that against it too much though, I read it straight through, but it probably is much better as a reference. Despite some flaws, this book has some real strengths. Unlike a lot of technical book, this book is rooted deeply in the practical. It mentions JavaScript solutions where they are useful. It has lots of links to blog posts and websites with additional information. Some books are written by people paid to...
Lots of CSS examples to wrap your mind around. I think there must be some errors, or some of the examples just do not make sense. I wish some of these examples were more fleshed out. The CSS is given with no HTML usage or example of the effect. Since I'm still learning CSS, this make it challenging.
I can't say I've read this book cover-to-cover, but of all my CSS books, I find this is the one I refer to the most. Actually, I have a number of O'Reilly "Cookbook" technical books, and they are uniformly the most useful books of my collection.
Its more of a reference, but I'm always reading it to get new ideas. The only problem i have with this book is- because I'm learning on my own and this is second edition - it assumes i know a lot more than i actually do, so i have a hard time understanding some of its concepts
As the industry standard method for enriching the presentation of HTML-based web pages, Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) allow you to give web pages more structure and a more sophisticated look. But first, you have to get past CSS theory and resolve real-world problems.

Part of starting the new business.
Oh my god. It's one of the most boring book which I read.All advices were actually in the start of century. Now this book should be considered as the museum exhibit.
A bit outdated but otherwise decent reference.
