Amazon has a bunch of CSS books for sale. Can anyone recommend one for me? I have a fair amount of HTML experience and have done one site with CSS, but I used a template so 99% of the real work was already done.
I'm looking for something in the beginner to intermediate range that will give me a good foundation.

- Thanks

I would checkout some of the books by Eric Meyer. Like Eric Meyer on CSS: Mastering the Language of Web Design [amazon.com], or the follow up More Eric Meyer on CSS [amazon.com].

Also, don't forget about the CSS 2.1 spec [w3.org] (as well as the CSS 1 [w3.org] and CSS 3 [w3.org] specs, though I find them less useful) located on the W3 website [w3.org].
