- Text-Resize Detection
- by Lawrence Carvalho, Christian Heilmann. A List Apart, September 12, 2006. "When you design for the web, you don’t know what software people will use to experience your site, and you don’t know what capabilities your users (and their software) have. Flexible layouts and resizable type can eliminate a lot of worst-case usability and design scenarios, but it’s still extremely difficult to create page layouts that don’t break even if the user increases the type size by more than a few settings. Stick around and we’ll give you a way to detect your visitors’ initial font size setting - and a way to find out whenever your visitor increases or decreases the font size. Why would you want to know these things? Because with this knowledge in hand, you can create a set of stylesheets that adapt your pages to the users’ chosen font sizes, preventing overlapping elements and other usability and design disasters..."

- Preparing your CSS for Internet Explorer 7
- by Trenton Moss. Webcredible, July 2006. "Later on this year Microsoft will officially release Internet Explorer 7. If you can't wait until then, you can download a beta version1 and see how it works. Microsoft has hinted that when IE7 is officially released they'll be looking to quickly upgrade users from IE6, so it's essential that your website is prepared for this new browser. You can also grab a screenshot of your website on Internet Explorer 7 using a service such as Browsercam2. Although this will only provide you with static screenshots, it'll save you having to download IE7 and will mean you can keep using IE6 on your computer. When looking at your website in Internet Explorer 7, you may notice a few things look different or even that the layout is totally broken. This will almost certainly be due to a number of changes that have been made in IE7 from its predecessor, IE6..."

- Style Sheets 'Made' Easy
- By Lee Underwood. Webreference.com, 26 May 2006. "One of the biggest problems many people have in setting up a Web site is creating the cascading style sheets (CSS). The proper method for designing a good site is to use HTML for structuring the pages and CSS for styling the content on the pages, but what if you don't know how to create a style sheet, or don't do it that often?..."

- CSS Typography
- By Garrett Dimon. Digital Web Magazine, January 16, 2006. "You don’t often see CSS and typography used in the same sentence - and for good reason. Traditional typography is a very subtle and beautiful form of design, with thousands of variations and choices. Unfortunately, with CSS that’s not quite the case. Don’t lose hope just yet, though. CSS can do more than you might think..."

- Internet Explorer & CSS issues
- by Trenton Moss. Webcredible, February 2006. "Trying to get CSS-based websites to look the same across all browsers can often be difficult. Many of the problems however lie with Internet Explorer implementing CSS commands differently to other, more standards compliant browsers. All is not lost, however, as many of the differences you see across browsers are caused by the same Internet Explorer CSS issues...
