I see it more as a reference on the desk while you work. Reading a webdesign book without implementing it at the same time is most of the time as useless as going to a course and then not applying the learnt knowledge for the next half year. :-) Other references on my desk: Jeffrey Zeldman's Designing with web standards, Any Phio's Return on Design, Joe Clark's Building Accessible web sites, and, most importantly Steve Krug's "Don't make me think". -- Chris Heilmann Blog: http://www.wait-till-i.com Writing: http://icant.co.uk/ Binaries: http://www.onlinetools.org/ ______________________________________________________________________ css-discuss [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/
