An updated classic about semantic markup and CSS

This is an updated edition of Cedarholm's 2004 book by the same name. Much of the content is unchanged. A small amount of new content has been added. For example, in the chapter "Applying CSS" there is now a section on "Reset Styles." With the 2009 edition, there are bonus materials available online from Friends of ED. These include the examples files from the book, a couple of extra chapters (one by Ian Lloyd) and several appendix-type reference chapters.

Although the bonus materials are excellent, they may not be enough of an incentive to buy the new edition if you own the 2004 edition. If you don't own the 2004 edition, this is a terrific book for anyone interested in semantic markup to own. It's worth buying. You will learn much about the best markup solutions to most text formatting questions.
