“I've had the absolute pleasure of working together with Chris in the MDN Product Advisory Board, creating and running the MDN DNA surveys, the Browser Compat Data project and through Open Web Docs. Chris is a fantastic tech writer, and in addition, he truly understands the value of the web platform and making the right decisions to support the health of that vital ecosystem. I've also seen him step up in challenging situations, navigating ambiguity, and completely owning full responsibility and solving problems all the way. I would highly recommend anyone to work with Chris if you get the chance, since he's a perfect mix of someone you can trust and being very professional, while also being one of the friendliest people alive.”

Readers will appreciate the author's approachable style and will catch on quickly with this easy-to-follow, practical guide. Well known and respected CSS3 expert Chris Mills devotes much of the book to creating fallbacks for older browsers, so that the content will still be accessible and usable.
Each chapter begins with a quick reference sheet with all the syntax, fallbacks, backward compatibility, and browser support (including mobile). The author clearly explains what the CSS features do and why they are useful. Then he demonstrates a simple design that illustrates usage, followed by more complex variations. The chapter then covers appropriate fallbacks/shivs for older browser support and problems that currently exist for that feature. Topics include CSS3 typography, bling boxes, navigation buttons, animated effects using CSS3, using CSS3 to implement icons, CSS3 layout chops, adaptive layouts and responsive design, fluid layouts and percentages, and styling media. The book's companion website offers a PDF of each chapter's cheat sheet, as well as sample code used in the book, available for free download and updated regularly. -
