From the Publisher: Dave Shea created the CSS Zen Garden (www.csszengarden.com). The idea was simple and elegant: Take some well-written HTML and invite designers to apply their CSS skills to create wildly imaginative designs, and then post the underlying CSS code on the site for others to study and use. From its humble beginnings in 2003, the Zen Garden has grown to include nearly 150 designs from around the world and has set the standard for high-quality Web site design using CSS. In The Zen of CSS Design: Visual Enlightenment for the Web, renowned Web designers Molly Holzschlag and Dave Shea walk you through 36 of the most inspiring designs in the Zen Garden.
