resource for learning CSS?

[Makaveli2007]

I know I could google it up, but does anybody know a great resource for learning the latest version of CSS (what is the latest version of CSS, btw?)? Any great website they could recommend? thx!

[w3schools.com...] and [w3.org...]

There are various versions of CSS, and not all browsers support all of each version, or at least properly. It's a pick and choose thing for the most part. As far as I know, virtually all browsers do have full CSS 1 support though.

The W3C specifies how CSS styles are supposed to behave, so it's an excellent resource for researching interaction between attributes and elements and a list of all the CSS stuff. It's not particularily newbie friendly though.

(what is the latest version of CSS, btw?)

CSS2. Modern browsers have at least partial CSS2 support. CSS3 is in the works. Some browsers already support proprietary CSS3-like tags.

As for learning, I would recommend you look at some sample templates to see how a tableless layout fits together, especially if you've used tables for layout in the past.

I'd recommend reading the specs (w3.org). The most recent version of CSS is CSS2.1 [w3.org]; technically it's not yet finalised, but they're arguing over minor details now. Certainly it's what browser implementers are working from.

I find the W3 quite difficult to stomach.

I would first do the CSS tutorials at htmldog.com [htmldog.com]

Then you should learn the basics of CSS positioning this [barelyfitz.com] tutorial is by far the the most straightforward.

And the rest you will learn from experience and lots of reading [alvit.de]

oh and use a cheatsheet [home.tampabay.rr.com] if you start suffering from information overload.

I just realized people arent really allowed to post links or such here if I remember that correctly..if so I apologize for asking this question. But thx for the information Ive gotten of course.
