Cascading Stylesheets
The enormous design flexibility available through CSS is often frustrating to implement with any cross-browser consistency. Though the CSS command set is small easy to learn, the underlying rules of inheritance and specificity that govern how it works, coupled with the huge number of ways in which Internet Explorer can screw things up, can often lead to some “interesting” results.
This section offers css methods and links to many related resources that we find useful in taming the beast, delivering sites built to standards and without relying upon tables for layout… unless of course tabular data needs to be presented.
Take control of spacings in your stylesheets
Browsers all sing to different tunes when it comes to their default stylesheets. Some of the areas of difference are obscure, and easily overlooked. Others are rather more noticable, giving rise to some obvious cross-browser rendering differences. They are however easily addressed without having to resort to css that becomes bloated with unnecessary browser hacks.
