CSS3 for Web Designers

Publisher: Dan Cederholm | ISBN: N/A | 2010 | PDF | 260 pages | 9.92MB


From advanced selectors to generated content to the triumphant return of web fonts, and from gradients, shadows, and rounded corners to full-blown animations, CSS3 is a universe of creative possibilities. No one can better guide you through these galaxies than world-renowned designer, author, and CSS superstar Dan Cederholm. Learn what works, how it works, and how to work around browsers where it doesn't work.

CSS3 for Web Designers, is the second installment in A Book Apart's For Web Designers series of mini books for, web designers.
The book aims to show designers those aspects of CSS3 which can be comfortably used today, along with workarounds for older browsers which don't support CSS3 (e.g. Internet Explorer 6.0 through 8.0).

Over six chapters, the book ranges from basic topics such as web fonts, gradients, shadows and rounded corners, to some of the more complicated aspects of CSS3 including advanced selectors, generated content and animations. It takes an almost story-like style, interspersing code examples and explanations with amusing stories, such as a trip down memory lane to the late 90s and javascript image rollovers, and witty analogies, such as I like to think of CSS transitions like butter.

Jeffrey Zeldman has the following praise for the book:
You couldn't ask for a smarter, more design-focused, more detail-obsessed guide to the smoking hot newness and conceptual and browser challenges of CSS3

CSS3 for Web Designers is written by renowned web designer and author Dan Cederholm, who's previous books include Handcrafted CSS (New Riders), Bulletproof Web Design (New Riders) and Web Standards Solutions (Friends of ED). Like his previous works, CSS3 for Web Designers is extremely well written and easy to follow, regardless of your skill level or familiarity with CSS3
