css manualsCSS describes how elements should be rendered on screen, on paper, in speech, or on other media. Previously development of various parts of CSS specification was done synchronously, which allowed versioning of the latest recommendation. You might have heard about CSS1, CSS2.1, CSS3. However, CSS4 has never become an official version. Instead of versioning the CSS specification, W3C now periodically takes a snapshot of the latest stable state of the CSS specification. This module provides a gentle beginning to your path towards CSS mastery with the basics of how it works, what the syntax looks like, and how you can start using it to add styling to HTML. This module looks at the cascade and inheritance, all the selector types we have available, units, sizing, styling backgrounds and borders, debugging, and lots more. Here we look at text styling fundamentals, including setting font, boldness, italics, line and letter spacing, drop shadows, and other text features. We round off the module by looking at applying custom fonts to your page, and styling lists and links. Now it's time to look at how to place your boxes in the right place concerning the viewport, and one another. We have covered the necessary prerequisites so we can now dive deep into CSS layout, looking at different display settings, modern layout tools like flexbox, CSS grid, and positioning, and some of the legacy techniques you might still want to know about. In addition to providing code you can use as a starting point in your projects, these recipes highlight the different ways layout specifications can be used, and the choices you can make as a developer.

Lemon 5.0 out of 5 stars I'm a professional technical writer who uses a single-sourcing tool called MadCap Flare to write, format, and produce content for printed manuals and online help systems. Flare itself isn't so hard to use. But it relies completely on CSS to format its output. For many years now, I've been using style sheets (in Word and FrameMaker), but I've only had a rudimentary knowledge of CSS. My use of Flare mandated that I get up to speed with CSS, otherwise I'd never be able to control Flare's output to the degree that I needed to. To start out, I did a couple of web tutorials on CSS. Nor does it clearly illustrate the full potential of CSS (which is ironic, since Lie helped define CSS specification). But it did get me moving down the right path and improve my Flare output. Wanting more, I read a couple of other books. But they were geared more toward advanced techniques for users who already understand CSS's capabilities. I needed to step back a bit and find the right book directed at intermediate users. Based on the Amazon reader reviews, I decided to give McFarland's CSS: The Missing Manual a try. And I'm really glad I did. For beginners, McFarland assumes you know a little bit of HTML, but that's about all. He guides you through CSS and its awesome capabilities with an easy, conversational writing style and clear examples that explain the interaction between CSS and HTML. The book teaches you gradually, and in a very logical order. You are always building on stuff you already learned in earlier chapters. Best of all, he provides tutorials so you can apply your new knowledge right away with practical, real-world examples. He also explains how to minimize your CSS markup to get the most versatility out of the last amount of code. His chapters on floating elements, managing divisions, and multiple columns is worth the price of the book, alone. He also provides common fixes so your CSS works with quirky web browsers (IE6, etc.). He also has a chapter dedicated to managing print output, so your web pages print nicely, which is invaluable to us who manage single-source content for multiple output formats. Upon finishing this book, I was able to completely overhaul and streamline my CSS files, and get much better results from my print and online output. If you are a beginner with CSS, start here. I promise you, this book will get you up to speed quickly. If you are an intermediate user, this book is a great refresher, and it covers all of the same techniques I found in books for advanced users, but with examples and tutorials that are much easier to follow. In short, this book's content is clear, thorough, and straightforward. Isn't that what you want when you are trying to learn something new. CSS is very, very cool. And this book is a superb learning guide that will help you realize its full potential. If you are a tech writer or a web designer, this book deserves a place on your shelf.I've read through dozens of technical how-to books, on topics ranging from CSS to Photoshop and Motion Graphics, but web technologies are often the most difficult to convey and explain succinctly and in context. Everything is very abstract in the world of web code; it's no small task to write a truly excellent reference book that keeps you engaged and informed as a reader, rather than bombarding you with white-paper speak or endless, overly complex examples. This book succeeds on all of the counts noted earlier. It's very easy to find exactly the types of CSS elements you need to learn about, and then quickly discover how they work. The time between reading and implementing is short. The examples are very clearly illustrated and the author's style and ability to explain things in the right order and with the right amount of detail, make this book a must-have CSS reference. Example: it took me all of 10 minutes to discover (again) how to build my own navbar elements with this book, including styling and page flow considerations. With previous books -even good ones- I'd often sit there scratching my head, turning pages back and forth for a half hour before similarly complicated topics made sense. I've probably read through a dozen popular CSS titles. This will be my go-to reference anytime I've forgotten a specific technique or guideline. As someone who works in the digital arts, I often go several months between code updates for my site and so having a truly comprehensive but efficient reference is a must to shake out the cobwebs. This is that book. Enjoy.This is annoying and patronising if you know what you're doing. He repeats himself over and over throughout each section. I must have been told what floating a block level element does over 5 times in different chapters. Still perfectly readable though. Overall: A very good book for learning CSS theory and techniques. It lost a star for repeating itself too much and therefore being a bit of a drag to finish.Sorry, we failed to record your vote. Please try again The book itself is quite chunky at over 500 pages so takes a while to work through. The Good: Brilliant for a newbie to CSS as it takes you from absolutely entry level to being able to understand and code beautiful CSS powered websites. I also used it as a reference for whenever I needed to do something I wasn't quite sure of and I found myself going back to it on a regular basis. The Bad: If you are a seasoned CSS coder then you will still find it great for reference but it can drag a little. In the beginning as a newbie you need to know when to press enter and click on buttons etc but by page 400 it's still talking you through like you have turned a PC on for the first time. This can be slightly irritating to more accomplished users. Overall: Great book if you are new to CSS or even if you just want a reference.Sorry, we failed to record your vote. Please try again It completely explains the correct way to format web pages. You can skim through it and get a lot of useful information, or you can go through all the examples via the online source code and really experience the learning process. If you don't already know absolutely everything about styling web pages using CSS, you'll be really glad you read this book.Sorry, we failed to record your vote. Please try again This book has given me so much more knowledge and is a fantastic reference point. I use it all the time now. The exercises are easy to follow and it is extremely well written to explain the details. This book would be great for beginners to experienced users. I wish I had bought it ages ago. It has some great tips and tricks and reference sources in it too. Just brilliant!Sorry, we failed to record your vote. Please try again This book is clearly written and packed with advice. There are also downloadable tutorials that you can use to practise your coding on. Not for the faint-hearted - this book is highly technical, but even a novice coder can use it to create great websites.Sorry, we failed to record your vote. Please try again A bit of comedy for a fluent flow of chapters too. I will purchase another book from his series! (probably jQuery)Sorry, we failed to record your vote. Please try again Sorry, we failed to record your vote. Please try again They both have a good reference section and it is easy to find info you want without ploughing through unnecessary text.Sorry, we failed to record your vote. Please try again If you need to know about CSS get this book, it is that simple.Sorry, we failed to record your vote. Please try again But hate the writing style. So verbose, esp. those step by step stuff. I buy this book not for how to use a text editor to create the file, so why bother show me how to add line by line. Just show the whole css and highlight some of the tricks like other programming books do. If writing that way, the book can shrink to maybe 50, all meat without any fat and sloppy stuff. Save the environment as well.Sorry, we failed to record your vote. Please try again I recommend it.Sorry, we failed to record your vote. Please try again However all catergories are covered in-depth, everything you need to know, easy to read and digest, and handy links to websites holding relevant information although some of the links don't work. Very pleased with my purchase though.Sorry, we failed to record your vote. Please try again It's a steep learning curve made easier by this book.Sorry, we failed to record your vote. Please try again. Ordering properties is just one choice you have to make that makes up a complete styling strategy. Naming is a part of it. Sectioning is a part of it.Think Twitter Bootstrap or GEL. I think they are a fantastic way to work particularly in large sites and web apps. This post isn’t about those. We’ll do a roundup of those some time, because I think that would be valuable too. This is about style guides for CSS itself. If you find yourself going further, think about reorganizing your rules (either the specificity needed, or the layout of the nesting). This will allow you to eliminate end of line whitespace, eliminate unintended blank line whitespace, and avoid polluting commits. There is literally no point in them, and they only ever cause harm. Location-specific selectors can save us time, but will quickly lead to a cluttered stylesheet. Exercise your best judgement. A span or div holds none. A heading has some. A class defined on an element has plenty. They have courses on all the most important front-end technologies, from React to CSS, from Vue to D3, and beyond with Node.js and Full Stack. They have courses on all the most important front-end technologies, from React to CSS, from Vue to D3, and beyond with Node.js and Full Stack. After reading one of your old article about CSS formatting I am now a single line CSS man. It is shorter and faster. Also, I think most people come up with their own formatting system. But I almost exclusively work outside of a team when it comes to CSS. There is literally no point in them, and they only ever cause harm.” I’m assuming one would only ever use classes instead of IDs. Is there really no advantage of IDs? Chris wrote an article on this on that very subject. I realize that the article is 2 years old but I think it still holds true. ID has a purpose, and many times specificity is not be a problem, but a solution. Maybe that’s bad practice and I had no idea lol. I’ve been noticing the “.class.class.class.class.class.class” thing as well and was wondering what that was all about. Didn’t actually realize people were anti-IDs. Can’t say that I see the argument. If you are having a specifity problem, using a selector that infinitely more powerful than a class is a sledgehammer approach when you need a knife (or something, you know what I mean). Because I think this is far from the truth. And I’m not saying to use the ID to stuff a rule with all the styling for an element, I’m just saying to use it to introduce unique declarations. Elements with IDs may be styled through a combination of rules (via type, class, id, whatever). Then authors cannot safely assume that a given rule is specific to a single element.But the problem has to do with how the tool is used, not with the tool itself. However, I can still think of instances where referencing content via an ID would be a quick and easy way to target that content and also “organize”, if you will, portions of the page. They are great because they are unique. At least in my experience, they help me feel less overwhelmed, ha! IDs are no problem at all, it is just how people use them. The only times I use IDs is when I end up in a specificity war with a 3rd plugin that has its own ID’d the max CSS code hidden away inside it that I need to re-style As we all know, the C stands for cascade which involves a lot of things.I was barely using classes, let alone IDs. At the time, I could have argue with anybody that using class was bad because ” they are too specific”. In my opinion, ignoring some of these tools entirely is not wise. Have you ever worked on Dot Net applications. But in your case you would then bloat out the document by passing in classes to then hook up to your CSS file increasing load time. As for aligning my CSS I generally add in the position elements then box model stuff then any text bits and then prefixes- I have never worked in.net, i understand the use of ID’s there, as well for Javascript, its just for CSS that i’m not down with the IDs unless forced into it The important thing to remember is that using an ID in a selector is very specific, and should be used sparingly. These rules do advise that IDs should NEVER be used for CSS. I firmly believe that crafting CSS should always focus on re-usability, it should be about creating patterns instead of one-offs. IDs are unique by nature and so work inherently against this. No matter how much you think you’ll only ever use a pattern once, somewhere down the line you’ll find yourself needing it again. But what if there is an element you know is going to be unique on every page. One that, if it did appear twice on the page, it would be a signal that something was wrong (such as a CMS spitting out strange chunks of code). Then using an ID solidifies this in the code, if there are two of those elements, there might be some sort of visual give away that things aren’t working as expected. Unlike the id selector, the class selector is most often used on several elements. It is because of Chris that i code now valid xhtml, and now html5 (I would not know how to miss code this one). I personally do the double. The combination of red, green and blue values range from 0 to 255 and gives a total of more than 16 million different colors to play with (256 x 256 x 256). If you were to use a pattern that repeated for example, another CSS rule would need to apply. Using either or none is fine, however, the two quote characters must be the same. I don’t remember if this will work: I almost always type them out separately if I’m using both an image and a color for the background on a given element. Or even if I’m not, I usually type them that way in case in the future I need to add one or the other. Might seem overly cautious, but that’s my opinion anyway. Why? we all use widescreen monitors and we don’t use them in portrait mode, so why would we not use more of the horizontal space available to us so we can see more of our CSS on one page? Leaving spaces before and after the: means that there is no visual grouping between property and value. The 80px “belongs” to the width property so should be grouped with it and seperated from the height property. It just makes it much easier to read and find properties quickly. I’ve stopped using them and I get less specificity headaches. That combined with CSS3 vendor prefix stuff, and I’m firmly back in “multi line” CSS camp. I used to have your exact same sentiments though so I feel you. Working in multi line made sure everyone saw the same thing. Not to mention it’s not like text in an article where you can sort of maintain your place using context clues and knowing what you just read. Probably just personal preference. I recently moved from hard-tabbing to soft-tabbing in because I found it worked better across different platforms and editors (a space is a space where’s tabs can be odd). But I use 4 spaces that is typically equal to a tab. Seems like the best thing might be to set “tab” to generate spaces (rather than tabs) in the editor of choice. Endlessly pressing the space bar drives me crazy, but I also don’t like when things aren’t lined up neatly, so not having a one button space would be really annoying. I’m currently looking at writing a style guide and needed some reference points. There is literally no point in them, and they only ever cause harm. But I understand what Harry is getting at. Personally I see it being a pretty awesome tool to build a straight-up document on each version of a site style to understand what is style is being called where. (I know you could just look at the CSS files but larger sites this would be most handy). I found their latest version though (not the codex one) and included it in the article. They can be very useful, just not under every circonstancies. I especially like the one from Nicolas Gallagher. Too short and its meaningless too long and its annoying. Human beings read style sheets too. Let’s hope and pray for a day when naming conventions are also appreciated. The most annoying aspect of working on someone else’s style sheets is the erratic and inconsistent placement of properties. Although now a days I’m trying to get more into OOCSS so I’ve been breaking those out into separate classes for reusability. It’s always good to know how other people code just to check if you can do anything better. Folks might really hate the style it uses, but it’s great to me. And then there’s this list on gimmebar: Thanks for sharing. For example, when using an OOCSS approach, I feel there is a need to separate the module, its variations, its components, etc, by naming conventions.It’s easy to tell what the element hierarchy is based on the naming convention, and this has more benefits than detriments. There’s a bit of an ID witch hunt at present and I’m unconvinced it’s entirely workable in the real world. There’s often far bigger fish to fry! I don’t have enough experience with different CMSs but that doesn’t sound like it would happen very often, if ever. I’ve had plenty of instances working with organisations that have their own (limited) CMS system. This separates logic processing from graphical presentation, but u can always use JavaScript to override your CSS. I’m looking into GitHub’s right now, and it’s got some very good guidelines. I especially like the way they explain their form styling. I’ve had trouble crafting proper, structured stylesheets forever. BTW great article, it definitely sparked some convo. You’d be surprised at what creative things people do with Javascript. Just give us the best practice of CSS-coding. Like this: I have come across too many companies (as software consultant ) where there’s no update logs and no way to figure out how they handle change management.One I don’t agree with is the “one-liner css statement”. It’s not readable at all, and only makes your file code broad. Writing every CSS statement in theoretical sections would clear things up for box-model, pure styling (font, color), and special FX (border-radius, gradient). This would make it easier on yourself and also on everyone who’s gonna touch the stylesheet after you. Having a blanket ban is not necessary but it is important to use them in the right places. This is what happens with JavaScript and other programming languages since years and finally it comes to HTML and CSS. Awesome. Just dont refer to them in your CSS. Neglecting to add them at all is really bad practice as it doesn’t allow developers to interact with elements easily. A step better than this is to assign ID’s to all unique elements but style them with a class. (Basically, no styling on ID elements) If you’re having issues with them overwriting something down the line, you’re probably not approaching it from the right direction perhaps. No one can really say without seeing some examples of the issues. They should only be used on unique elements (Like they were pre-HTML5, IDs of header, footer etc). I’ll stick to the official recommendations from WHTWG and W3C CSS WG. But there are great ideas to be taken away from it if you are interested. A simple example would be calculating a total on an ecommerce site; you might have many pages or side bars where it’s displayed. It should be abstracted to a common function all these places call in order to calculate a total. Thus if something comes up, like a change in the way tax is calculated, you make the change in one place and it applies to them all with a greatly minimized risk of missing one or having a typo in just one that goes unnoticed. This sort of code reuse can be accomplished in CSS by using well thought out classes; it makes life easier. If selector strength is your reason, then you have a larger problem of overly aggressive selectors somewhere else in your CSS; this is a band-aid use case. Being able to identify a unique asset in a list of similar assets. For example, you might want to know exactly which thumb nail image a user clicked on before displaying a larger version of the image in a light box. Their usefulness is fading with the advent of HTML5 data-something attributes, but it’s been a valuable tool for individualizing items. It’s understandable if a logo appears more than once, but most often it does not. Therefore code reuse does not apply in these cases, as you don’t write a function for something you only do once in programming (such as logging out, it may be on multiple places on a site, but it often goes to the same place, so no need for a function). Instead of arriving at alphabetical order, which is pretty logical, I came up with the idea of writing declarations in a hierarchical order. From there I would write any properties that dealt with content inside of the object such as font family or color. This allowed me to think about the object behavior from a global to specific context. For each element everytime CSS Engine go through whole stylesheet to look for specified element, once it finds the element (via id, class, tag or universal selector) it moves to its left selector and checks for the parent if the parent is right then move ahead and so the styles are applied. I wrote a blogpost on it explaining the whole process. Each classes and ids are unique in whole app. Even though they are machine generated (I don’t know how). Google suggests This arises a question how naming convention should be done to achieve both guidelines. Is Smurf Naming is ideal way here e.g. Is there any other way to overcome this problem? In my opinion there should be only one type of style and everything should have it’s own unique name. But that is not how W3C set things up. Now they created even more elements (header, nav, footer, etc). These elements have the exact same weight on a page as html and body. In my opinion that is not good or right. Not every page on the internet has a header or footer or even a nav. There can be standalone landing pages. However, every page on the internet has a body contained within html. Therefore, everything else on the page should be a “class” (which doesn’t necessarily mean the current CSS class definition), but just a style that is declared. And everything on the page should have it’s own unique name for a style, though it can be reused wherever you want. I don’t think ID’s or Classes make things easier. They are just more confusing and adding to it with things like header and footer makes it even moreso. W3C (and humans in general) make things too complex. Everyone has been about simplifying pages year over year, but then these weird random new elements keep being added to make things more complex.

I've used WordPress since day one all the way up to v17,JavaScript creations. These aren't surface level explanations, they represent just about all you need to know about these subjects as a web developer.This complete guide explains everything about flexbox, focusing on all the different possible properties for the parent element (the flex container) and the child elements (the flex items). It also includes history, demos, patterns, and a browser support chart. That's probably not generally a great practice, but it is helpful to know what the dimensions for all these devices are in a CSS context. You can think of it as a way to describe and display data that would make sense in spreadsheet software. Essentially: columns and rows. In this article, we’re going to look at how to use them, when to use them, and everything else you need to know. A Very Basic ExampleCodePen Embed FallbackWhy does it have to be so hard? They jeer. I think the issue isn’t that it’s difficult to do, but in that there so many different ways of doing it, depending on the situation, it’s hard to know which to reach for. Amelia and I recently presented at the same conference together. We both covered SVG, yet neither of us SVG fallbacks comprehensively. It’s such a huge topic, after all. While I’ve covered SVG fallbacks before, it’s been a few years and we figured we could do that subject better justice now.
