Reviews

[Jenny · Rating 4 out of 5]

As many resources as there are in this book, I got the most out of the chapter on accessibility, which was very short indeed. The sections on Flash came in handy as well when I needed some guidance in creating something I hadn't done in a while. It really is a great all-in-one-reference guide. It's a shame that it's a bit outdated (but no less useful). My favorite link that the authors recommend visiting is to the CSS Zen Garden. That is a neat place to get inspiration for CSS layouts.
