Stick with it , Jema. CSS will do your head in to begin with and it can feel like you have to learn a new way of thinking, but the rewards are worth it.
The main drawback with using CSS at the moment is that most people - poor misguided fools that they are - are still using M$ Internet Destroyer to look at the web. It's a big pile of poo, in my humble opinion, and anyone who produces websites with CSS will know how many hacks are required to get it to render even the simple stuff correctly. Like having a page centred horizontally in the viewport. D'uh!
FireFox is vastly superior, it's fast, very user friendly and it renders CSS brilliantly.
I don't know which books you have, but Zeldman's "Designing with Web Standards" is hard to beat. Eric Meyer has a lot of specific "how-to's" in his books, "The Zen of CSS Design", with examples from the website, is inspirational and "HTML Utopia: Designing Without Tables" is also well worth a read. |
