Whether you’re an intranet developer responsible for tens of thousands of pages, or a freelance Web designer operating on the cutting edge of technology, CSS 2 is an important tool for your toolbox. Designed specifically for those who have a clear understanding of HTML, this hands-on training tutorial will teach you how Cascading Style Sheets can be used to achieve a new level of fine-grain control over Web design. Learn how it’s possible to easily apply the same consistent look and feel to any number of pages using external style sheets.
