I’ve been working (for the weekend - sorry, couldn’t help myself) on some course material that I’ll be teaching late next year on XHTML, standards, and using cascading style sheets for layout. Luckily, there’s no end of great, inspiring stuff online to help communicate the power (and non-stop geek cool) of the separation of design and content.
Some good recent ‘uns:
- The much ballyhooed Wired redesign
- The beautiful, all CSS / XHTML personal site of Douglas Bowman, Network Design Manager at Wired: Stop Design.
- A very good interview of Douglas Bowman, written by the Pied Piper of CSS, Eric Meyer.
- The relaunch of WestCiv software’s excellent CSS course; a must read for anyone interested in learning more about CSS.
- XHTML / CSS in utero: Zeldman redesigns.
- At A List Apart: CSS Design: Taming Lists
- One last Eric Meyer link, and it’s a goodie: Tricking Browsers and Hiding Styles.
- Any others I should know about? Let me know, or post away in the comments.
If your interested in reading a great, great book, Eric Meyer: on CSS kicks it hard. How can one man know so much?
I’m working on some CSS stuff that you’ll hopefully see in the near future. It’s time to get this party started.
