The Skinny on CSS Attribute Selectors
Tuesday, February 16th, 2010From PSD to WP series – Part II
Monday, October 19th, 2009It’s finally published.
From Photoshop to Wordpress – Part II – Coding
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again… lesson learned. I never thought it would have taken me so long to write it but life comes at you with unexpected road bumps and you just have to deal with it. From now on tho, if I ever do another series, I’ll make sure all the parts are written before publishing the first one.
I’m just so happy that it’s out there and I hope it will help some of you learn how to slice a Photoshop mockup.
Like anything else in Web Design, understand that this is merely one way of doing it. It’s how I’ve done it for the past 10 years and it’s worked great for me.
As for Part III, I’m starting it this week and I hope to publish it in the coming weeks.
Thank you for you patience!

CSS Reset Stylesheets
Friday, April 18th, 2008From No CSS Reset by Jonathan Snook:
“The problem I’ve had with these resets is that I then find myself declaring much more than I ever needed to just to get browsers back to rendering things the way I want. As it turns out, I’m perfectly happy with how a number of elements render by default. I like lists to have bullets and strong elements to have bolded text.”
I echo that declaration. I too used to start my stylesheet with the famous
* { margin: 0; padding: 0; }
The I found that I was putting back the same formatting that was already set by default on most of the elements.
As for building a base CSS stylesheet, I do have one but it mostly only contains the main separations for a site like #header, #content, etc…
The Highly Extensible CSS Interface
Monday, April 14th, 2008A four-part series by Cameron Moll
“Throughout the duration of this series, we’ll be speaking extensively about markup — XHTML, CSS, and a little scripting. Marking up a website is akin to speaking Spanish. There’s more than one way say something, and there’s certainly more than one way to code something.”
