A couple of words about me and about the course to provide some perspective..
Me: I am not a CSS expert. I may never be. What I am is a teacher with more than thirty-five years' experience. I have been working with computers since the early '80s; have written a couple of books on computer topics as well as a couple of computer-related articles.
The course: Although I call the class an "introduction" to CSS, I think I cover all the important bases -- but not with any great depth. My students -- all of whom for this "maiden voyage" have taken my HTML course -- know that I am not an expert; I tell them that early on. And few of these students will pursue careers as professional Web developers. Most are just "civilians" who want to know more about how the Web works. (One student in my HTML class was an 82-year-old who just likes to learn.)
I teach the course in a public library as a volunteer. The workstations in the tech training room we use provide IE/Win 6; screen resolution is 1024 x 768. (At my request, the tech guy at the library has installed Mozilla 1.6 so that we can make some comparisons and so that the students can learn about and use { position: fixed }). With this narrowly constrained audience, I deal with neither the cross-browser issues nor the screen resolution issues nor the less-than-full-screen-display issues in either the instructional pages or in the instructional material itself -- although I make certain that the students are aware of these issues.
To help fill in the gaps, the course material includes a reference page which lists several books and Web sites. In addition, I have posted my yet-to-be-organized-and-annotated CSS bookmark list on my Web site.
I hope some of you will have both the time and the interest to take a look.
Thanks.
Jay Gerard
