Web Standards SolutionsAnother popular CSS book at our office is Dan Cederholm’s ‘Markup & Style Handbook’ providing a sound foundation of best practices for CSS & XHTML web design. In a similar way to The CSS Anthology, this book asks a question, such as, “What is the best way to mark up a numbered list of items?” or “How can I use CSS to replace text with an image?” However, this book really becomes it’s own, by proceeding to suggest 3 or 4 methods with clear and concise examples, before summarising with the pro’s and con’s of each method.

It’s sectioned into chapters including lists, headings, forms, tables and layouts with the familiar Friends of Ed thumb-indexing for quick and easy access. This is one of those books that you’ll keep on your desk for regular reference rather than gather dust on your shelf.

    It’s quite a good book, although it’s been a while since I last read it, probably because I haven’t actually seen my copy for a while…!
