I have ordered FP 2003 and want to become proficient in using the
improved CSS feature. I am not presently at all familiar with CSSs.

I have very comprehensive coverage of CSS in my book. Not only generic CSS
concepts (and how you can do some very cool things with CSS), but also great
detail on FrontPage-specific CSS topics.

I checked it right after I saw henry's post and it worked for me. Took a
second or two to load, but then brought up the BN page as expected.

Tell the truth now... did you really have 900+ pages of information
or did Pearson make you fluff it out to that size ? (Inquiring minds
want to know! :-)
 
Nope. The page count was determined solely by Paul and me. Pearson gave us
complete control over content. That's one of many reasons that this edition
of Special Edition Using... will be better (much better) than previous
editions.

Want to be sure? Cruise down to your local bookstore and check it out
before you buy. Should be on the shelves in about a week.

I will check it out. The reason I asked is that I own many a
Special Edition (on a variety of subjects) and some are clearly
fluffed. I was curious if it was Pearson policy that a SE Using
book had to reach a certain page count to be published.
 
You would be surprised at how much control the author has over content.
I've read a ton of computer books, and my opinion is that most of the ones
that stink do so because the author was lazy and didn't do thier job
correctly. It takes a LOT of work and time to get a book on the shelf.
Writing it is only a small portion of that. Unless the author works hard on
EVERY step in the process, the book will suffer.

Oh, I know that. I've written some small manuals in the past. I
considered book writing but I realized how much labor was
involved and decided it would have to be a full time job, not
part time.
