AECT 2008 - CSS workshop

Peter Rich from Brigham Young University gave us a hands-on introduction to Cascading Style Sheets. He says he actually uses Coda on his Macintosh but went with Style Master for the workshop because everybody could download a free demo. I learned a lot which I can use with our websites and in helping other folks debug theirs. Just knowing that span is the inline version of div is going solve some problems.

Peter directed us to the CSS Zen Garden to demo how CSS can change a page look just by switching style sheets, and recommended The Non-Designer's Design Book: Design and Typographic Principles for the Visual Novice by Robin Williams available from Amazon.
