Atlas Quest Resources

While not the definitive source for all things HTML and CSS, Atlas Quest is blessed with a developer who knows quite a bit about the subject. ;o)

Useful Websites

Below are a list of websites with additional information on creating websites—from technical introductions such as this tutorial to design concepts you might want to keep in mind.

Useful Books

HTML, XHTML, and CSS
by Elizabeth Castro

This is my HTML Bible. It goes everywhere with me and is the single-most used reference book in my library. If you're serious about creating your own website, you need this book. It explains all the intricacies of HTML and CSS and not only is an excellent tutorial, but works phenomenally well as a reference book as well.

CSS Cookbook
by Christopher Schmitt

You'll see the influence of this book on Atlas Quest. This book assumes you know the basics of CSS, but explains in great detail how to design a website using CSS. It describes advanced uses for CSS such as simulating image rollovers, making print friendly webpages, and drop down menubars. For simple websites and creating letterboxing clues, this book is probably overkill, but for those who really want to go the extra step, it's invaluable.
