TechWhirl (TECHWR-L) is a resource for technical writing and technical communications professionals of all experience levels and in all industries to share their experiences and acquire information.
For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.
One caveat here: In my experience, CSS works better in IE 3.x and higher
than in Netscape. Although Netscape Navigator 4.x and higher support CSS
(sort of), its support of styles inside tables leaves MUCH to be desired.
This can make things dicey if you're using page templates that place all
body-text into a table!!
