Summary
With Cascading Style Sheets and Dynamic HTML, you can supercharge your Web site, both visually and functionally. Now, learn CSS and DHTML fast! This no-nonsense guide teaches CSS and DHTML in the context of building two Web sites that reflect the most common scenarios Web professionals encounter: a company selling products and educating visitors; and a content site selling ads and subscriptions. The finished sites are on the Web, so you can reuse the code, and see how your pages should look -- and work! Coverage includes: defining styles with the STYLE tag, blocking off content with the DIV tag, stacking, interactivity, pop-ups, cross-browser coding, animating layers, creating E-commerce shopping carts, and much more. Essential CSS and DHTML for Web Programmers is one in a new series of books that share the same dynamic Web site, and can teach all the Web development skills you need, from PERL to Photoshop -- fast!
