It is hard to get to know the ins and outs (all the secret hand shakes of
css) - but once you get them figured out you will realize how powerful it
is. I would recommend reading and trying the Eric Meyer CSS projects.

I would also check out MezzoBlue.

Remember that tables work completely different from CSS. My advice would be
to your mind free of how you lay sites out in tables. It will save you time.
Trust me. I am a ten year web development veteran who has recently switched
to CSS over the past two years. 

It is hard to break your mental frame work of how to design a site, but it
is worth it.

I guess the single best piece of advice I can give working with CSS and
tables is to use the min-height tag for firefox and the *height for ie - in
an effort for your css layer to replicate how a table box works (stretches
when over flows). 

I would also research how to float stuff. Think of floating how you make an
image alight to the left or right of text.

I hear that about tables vs. CSS at times, but I never believe it :-)
