This is a list of some resources you can use for your CSS adventures.

www.twinhelix.com - the creators of some really cool CSS (and JS) menus, tooltips, and others. Free to use, except you have to make a donation or place a visible creding link to twinhelix.com somewhere in your page. Highly recommended.

Feel free to add your favorite tutorials, tools, or references to this thread. Please include a description of whatever it is, and make sure it's not already in the list.

Good tool for css authoring

http://www.newsgator.com/NGOLProduct.aspx?ProdID=TopStyle

It is worth getting the pro version (IMO).

Good couple of features like checking validity against browsers or standards etc. etc. and really helps you manage your style sheets; see all your selector-class-id declarations and helps create your css very quickly.

This is great, it has a 'try it' window for everything, manipulate the code and see what happens!

The W3C List of Recommended Doctypes - Remember to use a doctype!

The W3C QA Toolbox (Validators, checkers and other tools) - Remember to check your code!

Free Website Accessibility Tests - Becoming very important for legal reasons and ensuring that as many people as possible can use your amazing website.

Grid Layout Javascript - Really great piece of useful javascript to use during design/development for people employing a Grid Layout.

CSS Play - Website with lots of examples of multi-column layouts, css menus (drop-down, in-line, etc), image maps, etc.

This is a good tool for when your setting the background colors in your css.

It takes the guess work out and it has a mock site preview to let you see how your colors will look together.

It may be worth to mention by now, even though i'm still working on the Tutorials, the references are growing fast.

www.brugbart.com - Tutorials/References

I mainly focus on HTML, CSS and PHP/MySQL. It is possible to comment on each Tutorial Entry and each Reference Entry.
At the moment there are some pretty good position based layouts, with multiple columns.

That was already mentioned.

Anyway, try:
http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS1/ and http://www.w3.org/TR/2008/REC-CSS2-20080411/
It's more suited for intermediate to advanced coders since it's more of a manual than a teaching/step-through website. It's the best way to assure that you're standards-compliant (since they ARE the standards).
They also have the standards for HTML and XHTML.

Very Great and Famous GERMAN & FRENCH website about HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and some server-side related, which is surfable in a really great catalogue!

Main-Site:
http://www.selfhtml.org/

German-Site with Search (= "Suche nach") -- Have a try!
http://de.selfhtml.org/

ps: Google-Translate might help you out then when it comes to the facts.

Why has no one called up Chris Coyier from CSS Tricks.

It's an invaluable site where you can learn whatever your level.

I'm not an associate, friend or affiliate, just keen on learning from the masters.

For all you people that focus here on just css in a bite size format, try a book:
http://www.amazon.com/CSS-Missing-David-Sawyer-McFarland/dp/0596802447/ref=ntt_at_ep_dpi_1

CSS:The Definitive Guide Of Eric Meyer is worth it's weight in gold as well.

jenszer · « **Reply #24 on:** May 17, 2011, 01:23:09 AM »

this site might help http://www.csstutorial.net/

It talks about CSS, i already try it and i have many learning on that site. It shows the step by step process in using the CSS codes. You can find all the stuff related to CSS. I saw that site when i was editing my thesis using my latest gadgets like Laptop. Hope it can help.

Since the original writer can't seem to find this sticky, I post it for him.
If your completely new to css, and you rather do on line tutorials instead of reading a book,
You might want to give the following a try.

Written by a fellow phpfreak named crmamx.
