5 out of 5 stars Excellent Reference   September 1, 2008
The CSS Pocket Reference is just that, a "reference". It is not a lesson guide on using CSS. It will give you the quick syntax when you need it. It also gives a list of the browsers that support each element. Very helpful if you want your page to be compatible with more than one browser.


5 out of 5 stars Excellent Pocket-sized Reference Tool   August 2, 2008
You can't go wrong with this one-stop shopping reference book on CSS. You need to know or, at least, have a familiarity with CSS to take advantage of this tool. Highly recommended for CSS geeks & web designers. Eric Meyer is The Man.


4 out of 5 stars Great reference: perfect if it had illustrations   April 17, 2008
It must be very hard to pack the perfect reference about CSS in a small book that you can fit in your pocket. But this Pocket Reference about CSS by Web legend Eric A. Meyer himself is very close to being perfect.

The information on it is impeccable and serves as a great resource for those who what they are looking for (think of it as a dictionary). However, if you are clueless about CSS and want to learn from scratch, look elsewhere (his title CSS Web Site Design Hands on Training (Hands-On Training) is a very good starting point) as there are no concessions made her for newbies nor any illustrations to help you visualize the impact that changing things in a CSS expression can have.



5 out of 5 stars best cheat sheet out there   March 24, 2008
Exactly what I was looking for - all the codes needed for CSS at my fingertips, in a compact, easy to carry size. Great reference!


4 out of 5 stars CSS Pocket Reference   December 25, 2007
 2 out of 2 found this review helpful

For a small book, CSS Pocket Reference packs a lot of information.

The author, Eric A. Meyer, thoughtfully provides a basic CSS primer in the first 33 pages of the reference.

A must have, go anywhere, reference for every web page author/designer.
