Tech pundit Dave Winer put out a public call for CSS gurus to do a table-free redesign of the weblogs.com site.
Not only did Douglas Bowman do a nice job on it, he blogged the process, as well, so you can see what he did and why. Serves as a nice tutorial.
Simon Willison did a version, as well--and also blogged it.
I went into google and typed in Web Standards, just looking for various articles with something interesting to say. I went to this page from webstandards.org.
At the bottom of the page are a list of other pages and one is a forum for CSS.
Don't know how helpful it may be, but I thought I'd list it anyway.

I stumbled across this great list of resources to create different layouts with CSS. Since we all are trying to learn how to modify our blogs using CSS, I thought it might come in handy. It's at: CSS Layout Resources.
It's a link to ScriptyGoddess' List of CSS Layout Resources. It's a list of links to websites that provides code and the end resulting appearance.

This is for those who don't know anything about CSS. It talks about what kind of tags one can use in CSS. For example, what kind of font tags can be used in CSS. Usage of same tags in different ways, gives examples of how to write code in CSS.
Check out the CSS Properties tab for reference on what kind of choices in definining tags. Such as background, font, text properties.

Both articles on typography talk about visual differences in the presentation of html code accross multiple browsers and platforms. This is a great resource that gives all the specs on sizes accross browsers and provides useful hints on how you can make everything look the same or at least close on the Mac and PC.

Hi all, I took your advise professor and got the Eric Meyer on CSS book that you recomended. The book arrived today and is really well designed and from what I read so far the information is also pretty useful. Being that I know nothing about CSS I think this will be good for me to learn alittle before we touch on it in class. Anyway just wanted to say great recomendaton.
