Description:

Web Design Garage is a hands-on guide for Web design and usability. In the spirit of the Garage series, this book doesn't preach to the student or cover ground already well documented in software manuals. Instead, it provides practical, quick solutions to common design and usability problems. - This book includes layout diagrams in addition to graphical Web-page mockups. By comparing the figures, the student learns how to visualize design problems in terms of the underlying layout. Each topic in the book can be read or referenced as a stand alone solution, but cross-references are included where appropriate to foster a nonlinear, browsing feel. These "links" are helpful for those readers who want to learn more about a particular aspect of the problem.
