Part Two: Building a Better Web Page > Advanced CSS
Chapter 8. Advanced CSS
Chapter 4 introduced you to the basics of Cascading Style Sheets. In other chapters, you learned how to use CSS to style links, navigation bars, text, and tables. You can go a long way in web design with just those basic techniques (many people do). However, to really become a web design expert, there are a handful of advanced CSS concepts you should grasp. Fortunately, Dreamweaver also includes tools to help you with these concepts so you can work more efficiently and avoid those head-scratching "Why the heck does my design look like that?!" moments.
Note:
This chapter will help you on your journey from CSS novice to master. But keep in mind that it's the rare mortal who understands everything about CSS from reading a single chapter. If you really want to know the ins and outs of CSS, you owe it to yourself to pick up a friendly, real-world tested guide. CSS: The Missing Manual has gotten rave reviews on that front, and that's not marketing-speak: it's honest-to-goodness advice.
