There’s been a lot of discussion over the past six months about the CSS Working Group and the pace of CSS3 development . Here are some of the highlights.

Just go back from the Voices that Matter Web Design Conference. It was one of the best conferences I’ve ever been to.
All the gurus were there; Eric Meyer, Andy Clarke, Jeremy Keith, Stephanie Sullivan, Charles Wyke-Smith, PPK, Robert Hoekman of Miskeeto and many more.
I’ve been reading a new book about CSS, it’s call Transcending CSS, the fine art of web design by Andy Clarke. Molly Holzschlag has provided the editing and a forward, and David Shea the preface. It’s not your ordinary beginning CSS book, in fact it’s not for beginners at all, which is one of the reasons I bought it.
In the first few pages I learned about styling attribute selectors (who knew), as in putting borders around images that have “alt” tags or coloring text with a “title” attribute. Not only that, it’s a beautifully designed book with lots of photos and color. It feels good in your hands, like a much loved and well read favorite.
More to come …
