I suppose you could consult the source:
<http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS2/>
and as confusing as that technical document is, it is more often than
not, less confusing than some of the explanations of it one finds on the
Web. Those among us with an analytical, or "linear," mind-set seem to
have little difficulty understanding or implementing it.
As for the rest of us, and I count myself among them, who are of a
visual or "holistic" mind-set, find answers to specific issues are often
little more than repeated trial/error coupled with experience-- a
c...-shoot, at best. But, rewarding nevertheless: just a different
approach to problem solving...
