Hi Judy, I learnt CSS by using one of Pat's templates available on her websites, and playing with the colours and widths and sizes of H1 etc., Practice does make perfect they say, and so I am still practising, but learning each and every time. I must say that about a year ago I was delighted when I worked out how to do something in css that I wished to appear on a webpage and tinkering until it was just so. I also am an advocate of reading other people's css if I see something that looks good on their webpages. The penny does eventually drop. ;-)) Best wishes, Jill http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~glamorgan/
