Need an advanced CSS tutorial

Greetings.

I already know basics of CSS and am able to read and understand other peoples' code ;). That's not a problem. Now I'm looking for a complete reference of all that CSS stuff. I need to know what is a ">", when do I use CSS2, where do I need @media etc.

And please, no W3Schools ;). Some other this time.

I'm sure you'll help. I might get a job for summer and I need to know all these. The sad thing is that I'm an IT student and everything we've done is used Frontpage. I consider that absolutely horrible.

BamseThe definitive reference: <!-- w --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.w3.org">www.w3.org</a><!-- w -->

The css 2 spec is here: <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS2/">http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS2/</a><!-- m -->

I suggest you Download a copy and keep it in your documents to refer to it.Well, actually I knew that already. I've been browsing the W3C maybe about a year now. I guess I just have to sit back and really read those tutorials from beginning to end.

Will I find everything I want to know about CSS at W3C? The CSS page is a bit complex. It has links to whatever sites and tutorials. I just need a quick reference (W3Schools has one, but doesn't answer all my questions).

Thanks anyway.

Regards,
BamseYou'll find pointers on the W3C to the Western Civilization westciv.com site. They have a very good easy to read and nav CSS ref with examples. They are particularly good re advanced selectors like your mentioned.

<!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.westciv.com/When">http://www.westciv.com/When</a><!-- m --> I learnt CSS I did the w3schools stuff and then just refered to a pdf of the css2 spec on my machine. it's ideal just for telling you the proper names of all the definitions (in one of the appendices).
