hi. well a member of blind geeks. and asked to write a short basic tutorial on css. did learn css in my web design course in 2007. and di use it a bit to tweek a web project recently. but my question is: what resources and what links to some tutorials to get a handle on how to write a short css tutorial. and how to write one. and what do i need to put in it. just asking. i do know css, but a bit rusty. and totally blind. so the biggest problem, where things are located on screen. so any one got any ideas where to start and how to write a tutorial for this technical group.

Hi Marvin, The w3schools tutorial is handy: http://www.w3schools.com/css/css_intro.asp The reference is useful too: http://www.w3schools.com/css/css_reference.asp Cheers, Rob Marvin Hunkin wrote: hi. well a member of blind geeks. and asked to write a short basic tutorial on css. did learn css in my web design course in 2007. and di use it a bit to tweek a web project recently. but my question is: what resources and what links to some tutorials to get a handle on how to write a short css tutorial. and how to write one. and what do i need to put in it. just asking. i do know css, but a bit rusty. and totally blind. so the biggest problem, where things are located on screen. so any one got any ideas where to start and how to write a tutorial for this technical group.

Re: [WSG] css tutorial
Marvin, You may want to try checking out the W3Schools at http://www.w3schools.com/css/default.asp That site should provide you with way more than enough information to do a couple of tutorials..

RE: [WSG] css tutorial
Hi Marvin, If you're looking for help on CSS and some reference materials then I can't recommend the SitePoint CSS Reference [Located at: http://reference.sitepoint.com/css] highly enough. And as Chris said, I'd avoid W3Schools.com like the plague, it is severely lacking in up to date tutorial materials.
