Drew McLellan, Dreamweaver pundit extraordinaire, has written an excellent article on creating CSS layouts using Dreamweaver 2004. The CSS is provided for you to scrutinize at your leisure; the article doesn't slow down to explain the code, but moves through the various processes … [Read more...] about CSS layouts and lists

Redesign complete…

June 29, 2003 Stephanie Leary
