I completely agree. When I first learned CSS it was largely through tips and tricks like these, but without any sort of mental model or big picture understanding of what was going on my progress was unimaginably slow. I had to actually read part of the spec and start looking at and modifying stylesheets used on real sites before I became at all comfortable.
- mcantor 16y agoWas there a particular part of the spec you found illuminating / readable?
- camtarn 16y agoWhen I was learning, I got really quite confused by the intersection of floats, overflow and positioning. Reading the spec and actually understanding all of the rules at the same time, rather than just what I could glean from random hacking and tutorials, was really valuable.
