And Dan, as an owner of HTML Utopia... I want to thank you... without your book I don't think I could have made the bridge from the Cretan Era to the CSS era. Read I three times cover to cover and still refer to it regularly.
WestCiv's Tutorials on CSS also tops in their web-dev self education arena
As for the future of CSS and standards... the Acid2Test challenge is on and Safari engineers at least are going for it.

Well I do a lot of web work too, and I assure you that CSS is the future and the way large and consistent sites can be reasonably done. What's frustrating is that if a page is constructed in CSS that it is not easily possible to see what the commands do as you don't see the results until it's rendered in a browser or two...
Using tables is discouraged today - you can do it better and in a more modular way with CSS. And CSS allows absolute pixel dimensions for better cross platform display. HTML was not designed to be a design protocol, but a way to organize and link information online, in outline form. The font and many other HTML tags are limited and vary depending on platform and browser and shouldn't be used in todays html code. CSS is standard, and is essential for database-driven sites.
I had to learn to love it, but I think it's great. And it WOULD be nice to have style sheets in REV if we're going to have html.....

X What, no Replace in your text editor? Again, I'm mainly annoyed with the way that people use CSS, and the fact that people seem to use it for EVERYTHING, not just large documents, which makes small ones much more difficult to read.
