I got a gift certificate to Borders for Christmas last month. Since I live within walking distance of the nearest Borders bookstore, the gift certificates don't last very long.
I made a bee-line for the back of the store (as usual) and went straight to the Oracle section. We've done some initial prototypes with HTML DB and I was looking for a good book to help expand my knowledge. Come to find out, there's only one book on HTML DB out, but the one I was looking for doesn't come out until the end of the month.
While the wife was perusing the romance novels, I started thumbing through the CSS and XHTML selections thinking I might spruce up the blog. I got about 10 pages into the first book and couldn't follow it. I thought maybe the book was over technical, so I picked up another one. I started reading that one and after a while, just didn't get it either. Maybe I'll just stick with the templates...

Don't touch a comma!
I like it just how it is now! ;-))
Cheers.

I want to make the text width a little bigger, but am not really sure how to do it...
I read "Cascading Style Sheets: The Definitive Guide" by Eric Meyer (O'Reilly) from cover to cover, trying out some of the examples. I'm still a beginner at CSS but it all makes a heck of a lot more sense now.
I wonder how the guys who wrote the HTML DB book feel about the new name.

The book is not shipping until 2/28. Maybe they have time to change the title?
my word: xpspy - sounds like a new class of malware.
