Cascading Style Sheets Advanced CSS Topics From Jennifer Kyrnin, your Guide to Web Design / HTML Once you've gotten through the rest of the CSS tutorial, you've learned the basics of CSS and how to apply them to various types of HTML elements. But there is a lot more to CSS than that. These advanced topics bring up aspects of CSS and styling Web pages that may not be supported yet or are just theoretical. Advanced Boxes with CSS There is more to boxes than the basic CSS box model. With CSS you can affect the amount of content that is displayed in a box, how it is clipped, and what happens with the over flowed text. You can even create fake frames with these style properties. clip overflow "Framed" Pages Without Frames using CSS Specialized CSS Syntax CSS syntax doesn't end with the basic syntax. There are several different advanced CSS selectors that you can use to define the exact elements you want styled. CSS Pseudo Properties CSS Universal Selector Adjacent Sibling Selectors Child Selectors CSS Specificity Media Types and At-Rules Media types allow you to define styles for how your Web documents might display. For example, you can define the media as "print" for printed documents or "tv" if the page is displayed on a television monitor. <style media="projection"> ... </style> Another way to define media rules is with @-rules. You use these to define the styles for different media types: @media print { p { font-size : 12pt; } } CSS Media Types @Media Rules Printer Friendly Web Pages with CSS One trick you can do with CSS is to create printer-friendly pages by defining style sheets for the print media type. Modern browsers will then print the Web page with print styles that can be very different from the Web browser styles. What is a Printer-Friendly Web Page? How to Use CSS to Create Printer-Friendly Pages Break Pages in the Right Places When Printed Aural Style Sheets When people think of style sheets, they generally think only about how the page will look. But Aural Style Sheets are a part of CSS 2 and allow you to define how your Web pages should sound when read. CSS Generated Content CSS 2 added the new feature of generated content. This is content that the CSS adds to the HTML document. It is intended to add things like quotation marks around quotes, numbers or short intro text before or after elements, or bullets and images as icons. The problem is that generated content is not supported by Internet Explorer. Until this is resolved, Web designers should be advised not to use it. CSS Generated Content :before :after quotes content CSS 2 Counters CSS Level 3 CSS 3 takes the different sections of CSS and separates them into modules. The idea being that as different sections are approved, then can be made standards even if the entire CSS specification isn't standardized. There are a number of CSS 3 selectors that allow you to identify specific elements or parts of elements for styling. Some of the more interesting ones include the attribute selectors that select on an element that has all or part of an attribute. What is CSS 3?

If you can't see this email, click here

Become a Freelance Web Designer Legal Issues From Jennifer Kyrnin, your Guide to Web Design / HTML As a Web designer there are a lot of legal issues you need to be aware of. The most common infraction is with copyright - either someone steals your work or you inadvertently steal theirs. But there are also issues around linking, privacy, and even kids online. I am not a lawyer, and I don't know all the relevant laws that may apply to you in your area, but here are some of the ones that most designers need to know about. Copyright Copyright on the Web Just because something is on the Web doesn't make it legal to copy it and put it on your own Web page. Are Web Designs and HTML protected by copyright? Web designers and developers work hard to create their Web pages, and it can be very infuriating to spend days or weeks on a design only to find it being used on some other site a few months later. HTML, CSS and the designs they create are protected by copyright. Free Content Might be Stolen - Don't Violate Copyright There are a lot of reprint sites available on the Web, but you should be aware that free can sometimes come with a hidden price - especially if the site is a reprinter that violates copyright. Even if you have added the content completely innocently, if you are hosting plagiarized content, you could be held liable. Always check the sources of your free content - and beware of reprint sites. Linking The Legalities of Linking Is it legal to link to sites outside your own? What are the legal ramifications to linking to other sites? Privacy Are You Invading Your Customers' Privacy? Privacy isn't always a legal issue, but it is getting more important and may become one in the future. And requiring information that may be considered private could affect how customers view your site. Privacy Policies and P3P Learn how to post your privacy policy as an XML file that is computer readable. Children and the Internet COPPA While COPPA has since been overturned, there are other laws that may be in place in your juridiction that affect how you build your websites, especially if you're building sites for children.
